This is a recording of a live full-day conference that took place on 18 January 2024. This recording will be available to view until 2 August 2024.
This is the first in a 2-part series of FREE-to-member one-day conferences addressing clinical issues arising from health inequalities and demonstrating how GPs can positively influence health inequalities as practitioners and community leaders.
Health inequalities are differences in health across the population and between different groups in society that are systematic, unfair and avoidable. General practice, with its unrivalled access to the heart of communities, has a key role in addressing both causes and consequences of health inequalities in the UK. We recognise general practice is a diverse profession caring for multiple patient populations and our aim is to move from conversations to actions, improving patient care in these communities.
This programme was put together by RCGP Officers, Faculty Education Leads and expert speakers, who are participating throughout the day and will include examples of best practice, relevant guidance and links to useful resources.

- Incorporating health inequalities into training portfolios
