Manchester Art Gallery

Un-framing EDI June 2025

A relaxed, open space for GPs to engage in a philosophical exploration of equity, diversity, and inclusion through conversation and art. Each session begins in the Gallery Café with small group discussions before diving into a relevant artwork on display, using it as a lens to see familiar topics in new ways. We wrap up with a facilitated group discussion in the gallery space — a chance to ask big questions, share insights, and challenge assumptions without needing all the answers.

GP Registrar Insights: No more gaps, sharpening skills in tricky clinical areas

Welcome to our peer-led educational programme for all GP registrars! We aim to create an informal space for registrars to come together once a month and share their questions, thoughts and worries about various topics related to GP training. Each session will have a theme, varying from exams to post-CCT preparations, with plenty of scope for future topics to be decided by you. Sessions will be facilitated mainly by other registrars with experience/an interest in the topic.
