Pulse LIVE partners with NASGP
We are delighted to announce a new Association Partner for Pulse LIVE Events: Please welcome the National Association of Sessional GPs (NASGP) who are supporting all our in-person events in 2024.
The NASGP are the independent membership body for general practice locums in the UK, founded by locums for locums. They have spent over 20 years supporting locums as they progress in their career, empowering them through a collective voice and effective support at every stage of their journey.
At Pulse LIVE London on 26 March, the closing plenary will welcome NASGP Founder and Chairman, Dr Richard Fieldhouse, along with Dr Victoria Tzortziou-Brown and Dr Venothan Suri to discuss the GP workforce: Have we swapped a recruitment crisis for a retention crisis?
Dr Fieldhouse has said about his visit to Pulse London: 'I’m really glad to be at this event, both as a delegate and a speaker, especially as workforce is so topical at the moment. The number of GP locums in the UK has increased by 5,000 GPs in the last five years, but the funds to utilise us in a sustainable way has not materialised. And with the GP contract negotiations not going as well as they could be at the moment, with the potential for looming industrial action, what could possibly go wrong?!'1
Pulse LIVE London is the must-attend free GP event of the year, specifically created for all practising, GMC-registered GPs and trainees in the UK. Not only does it provide the chance to listen and learn from experts in their fields, but it provides the ideal networking opportunity to meet with likeminded GPs while gaining up to 8 CPD hours. This is a great opportunity for GPs to kick-start 2024 and continue their professional development.
'Excellent conference with the chance to choose the talks that you wish to attend which makes it more relevant. Also very high quality speakers and choice of topics. Overall excellent.' ~ Jonathan Moore, Portfolio GP, Pulse LIVE London 2023 attendee.
If you wish to sponsor, exhibit or partner with an upcoming Pulse LIVE Event, please get in contact with our Event Sales Manager Nick Hayward.
