As we near the October deadline for completion of the five London Sustainability and Transformation Plans, and the remainder of the 44 plans being worked on across England, there is increasing discussion about the value of the planning process.
The Five Year Forward View promised sustainable GP funding by October this year. Do you think that general practice is more stable now than two years ago?
Speakers’ Corner – Cancer awareness at The Royal Marsden
This month’s Speakers’ Corner comes from The Royal Marsden, the world renowned hospital that specialises in cancer care, treatment, research, training and education. The Marsden is currently working to help GPs improve their diagnostic skills for certain types of cancer.
The Pulse Power 50, published earlier this month, recognised the impact and influence of a number of Londonwide LMCs’ GPs including CEO Dr Michelle Drage and Medical Director Dr Katie Bramall-Stainer, along with LMC Chairs Dr Jackie Applebee and Dr Paul O’Reilly.
We continue to be very active promoting the interests of London GPs and practice staff on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. We also support practices that are approached with media requests, you can find details of how to get support here.
Got a story? Email us at comms@lmc.org.uk.
Deadline for next month’s submissions is 10 August.
