Londonwide LMCs' second workforce survey - Thank you

Thank you for making space in your hectic day to complete our recent short survey on practice workforce issues. This was a follow-up to the survey that many of you completed six months ago and which led to stories highlighting the pressures you are under being published in The Observer and other media.  

Our November survey has had an excellent response. And has revealed some concerning intelligence about the workforce challenges facing London’s general practice. We have heard from nearly 600 individual practices across the capital and are about to begin analysing the information received on staffing levels, vacancies, recruitment, succession planning, and their view about the future of general practice in London.

Using our earlier survey as a benchmark, in the new year we will be reporting back on how / whether things have changed for London general practice in the intervening 6 months.

The needs of general practices in London are central to everything we do so it is important to us that we have a good understanding of your work and the challenges you face on the ground. This piece of research will be instrumental in informing our strategy and discussions across the Capital over the next year and help us to understand the challenges your workforce is facing, and how you are working to overcome them.

If you are interested in helping us to understand and raise awareness of some of the workforce issues facing London’s general practice community, please contact comms@lmc.org.uk for a chat about the next steps in this project.
