What's happening

What, Why and How?

What is Next Gen GP?

Next Generation GP is a funded national leadership programme for trainees and new GPs. We want to engage a new generation of leaders in primary care, equipping them with the skills and networks to succeed, and empowering them with the belief that they can translate insight into impact.

Participants will benefit from the unique opportunity to meet, engage with, and ask questions of some of the foremost leaders in UK general practice and beyond.

What's it all for?

In the face of unprecedented pressures the landscape of the NHS is changing rapidly, and the centre of gravity is moving rapidly towards primary care. This represents an exciting opportunity for new GPs to be involved in improving frontline services for our patients.

That said, with the largest curriculum and the shortest time to learn it all, many of us start out without a clear understanding of the system we’ll be working in, the changes being planned around us, or the tools to lead change effectively.

The NHS needs change makers, and primary care needs them too.

How do we do this?

ENERGISE: through access to the stories, perspectives and expertise of inspiring leaders.

ENGAGE: through a supportive network of like minded local trainees and early career GPs.

EMPOWER: through a series of workshops designed to increase your ability to shape care within and beyond your organisation
