Welcome
The Forum is a collaboration
hosted jointly between the Royal College of Psychiatrists and the
Royal College of General Practitioners which held its first meeting
in January 2009.
It has an initial 2 year
life cycle and is currently conducting a review of its activities
and developing an onward strategy.
These pages bring together
the activities of the Forum with other initiatives within both
Colleges and provide resource in the form of leaflets, publications
and guidance documents, work with other organisations, future
meetings, conferences and other events.
