Have you ever thought, What is my faulty doing for me? Please join us for an informal discussion on what YOU would like us to be doing. The faculty is here for all its members and it's important that we get to hear what it is you want from us. We need you to help develop a wide range of events both online and in-person for 2025. The faculty can host events covering all areas from well-being, Socials, and Learn & Connect sessions which incorporates an element of CDP along with some fun activities. We also where needed support GP's who need extra help navigating the current challenges, from exams to being a Locum. All suggestions are welcome. We are keen to encourage all local GPs to attend, from GP Registrar's to our retired members. Join us and share your ideas.
