Next Generation GP London 2020/21 - *Applications open - Limited Time only*

Dear GPs and GP Trainees

We are proud to announce Next Generation GP London 2020/21 is back for the fifth year running - now on Zoom!

Applications are now open, and will *close on Friday 13th November at 12noon*

This nationally expanding and fully-funded programme seeks to inspire emerging future leaders in General Practice, and this year is no exception, with a fantastic line up of workshops and interviews by foremost leaders in healthcare.

The programme consists of 6 evening events from December 2020 - May 2021, and will be held virtually on zoom for approximately 90 minutes starting at 7:30pm.

Why?

Next Generation GP aims to:· 

ENERGISE: through access to the stories, perspectives and expertise of inspiring leaders at the forefront of primary care.· ENGAGE: through a supportive network of like-minded Trainees and early-career GPs·

EMPOWER: through a series of workshops designed to increase your ability to shape care within and beyond your organisation.As the landscape of the NHS changes rapidly, the centre of gravity is moving rapidly towards primary care. That said, with the largest curriculum and the shortest time to learn it all, many of us start out without a clear understanding of our healthcare system, or the tools to lead change effectively. Our driving force behind the creation of this programme is our belief that sustainable change in the NHS is based on the strength of the people behind it.

What?

The sessions will include a themed workshop, talk or facilitated group work session addressing a specific leadership challenge or an interview with an inspiring national leader, with a chance for the audience to engage and ask their own questions to the guests. There will also be networking opportunities with guest speakers and delegates.

Who for?

Next Generation GP is for GP trainees and early career GPs with an interest in health policy and the wider NHS. Applications will be accepted from London based GPs and GP trainees.

Feedback from previous years

This increasingly popular programme has had some fantastic feedback over the years. Here are some from last year:- ‘Having compiled my NGGP notes, I have contemplated and re-evaluated my core values in order to consider the direction I would like to take my career in. Since then I have put out feelers, followed up on and applied for events that will help me to most effectively affect change in these areas’- ‘The people I’ve met have opened doors, and I think I’ve also been able to open up experiences for them’- ‘I feel generally more confident and willing to embrace new opportunities!’
