The RCGP Members' Lounge at 30 Euston Square has just been moved to the ground floor - there is now an infant feeding room, with a fridge for expressed breastmilk; a prayer space; & soundproofed pods for private meetings. So glad College is becoming a more welcoming environment.

Deciding when, how & what to tell those you love and who love you about a cancer diagnosis can be as traumatic as hearing about it for the first time yourself. I hope those who casually spread gossip, rumour & conspiracy theories about the Princess of Wales now stop & think about…

Watching the fallout from #RCGPEGM , I'm incredibly proud of how RCGP handled our debate on PAs - COIs were declared, the paper brought to #RCGPCouncil was evidence-based, & we managed to discuss it constructively. Well done Victoria Tzortziou Brown Kamila Hawthorne michael mulholland & all on Council
