On 22 October Pulse mentioned one of our updates in their coverage of integrated neighbourhood team plans in North West London. On 17 October Londonwide LMCs was quoted in a Pulse article about measures to maintain practice funding in South East London following the cyber-attack on testing services. We continue to be very active promoting the interests of London GPs and practice staff on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. If you have an example of general practice doing something well which could make a news story please get in touch. We also support practices that are approached with media requests. You can find details here. |
