In October we are refreshing the Londonwide Buying Group with even more benefits for practices across London, helping you to:
- Save – by accessing reduced prices, offers and prioritised service.
- Earn – by accessing funded projects, including research.
- Sustain – by improving practice finances and supporting staff wellbeing.
What we will offer practices
The refreshed Buying Group will bring high quality products, services, opportunities and offers to London general practice at the best prices and with the best possible deals.
It includes new staff retention/ wellbeing offers that can be used directly by all members of the practice team, from theatre ticket offers to deals on goods and services.
The Buying Group categories are increasing from 3 to 7:
- New digital and tech (including cloud telephony)
- New efficient energies and waste
- New staff wellbeing
- New research and innovation
- Consumables
- Insurance
- Training
Buying group deals are structured to get the best possible prices for London practices. Any additional money realised by Londonwide LMCs via the Buying Group is reinvested into delivering support and additional services over and above Levy, expanding our work supporting all 1,117 practices we represent.
Next steps for practices
Keep an eye out for more details by email, on our social media channels, and in our October newsletter on who our new and returning suppliers are. Accessing the deals we have negotiated should be simple, with suppliers committed to applying the agreed discount or offer once a practice has been identified as being from the Londonwide LMCs’ area.
Interested suppliers
After the launch we will still be looking to add new suppliers who satisfy our criteria on quality and price. If you have an existing supplier who you think delivers a good service please send us their details or suggest they contact us directly: info@lmc.org.uk.
