Latest LMC workforce survey - please complete our short survey by Wednesday 9 December 2020

Thank you in advance for making space in your busy day to complete our short survey on practice workforce issues. This will help us gather insight to share with key opinion formers and stakeholders, and to generate stories highlighting the pressures you are under for trade and national publications.

Our latest workforce survey was sent to practices via email with a small number receiving it on 24 November, with the bulk of practices getting it on 25 November. It us the tenth such survey we have had conducted via polling company ComRes. The data gathered from previous workforce surveys has been used in a number of ways to support our work advocating for you, including:

  • Obtaining coverage of London’s GP workforce crisis in dozens of articles and reports, including on the front page of a national newspaper.
  • Securing practice visits with MPs and Assembly Members from the three main political parties representing London.
  • Being invited to submit evidence to Parliamentary committee enquiries.
  • Showing commissioners and the other bodies which make up London’s health landscape that GP practices are facing significant workforce issue.

Please complete the survey by Wednesday 9 December 2020.
