New LMC terms

Over recent and coming weeks our LMCs have had, or are having, their inaugural meetings, following the elections which took place this summer. At these meetings LMC members will select Chairs and Vice Chairs to lead them for the next two years. LMCs may also co-opt nurses and practice managers to give their voice, and GP trainee representatives where none have been directly elected.

Londonwide LMCs and area LMCs understand that this is particularly challenging time for everybody working in general practice and encourage colleagues to come to their LMC for support and as the best conduit to raises issues affecting individuals and practices.
