Dear All,

Hope you all enjoyed some of the sunshine over the past weeks.

It seems a good time to kickstart this year with an online zoom meeting this week, on Thursday 18 August - starting at the usual time of 7pm.

This is going to be an informal catch up, introduction and troubleshooting session and opportunity to re-group and plan the year's priorities and CPD plans.

Also, our wonderful Ade who has helped steer GLG through many years of CPD and camaraderie (thank you always, Ade!) has announced her retirement plans. We will miss her terribly, and this also means we are looking for committee members to join us. If you are interested in joining as we restructure, please get in touch at [email protected].

A zoom link will be posted via the locum member's forum closer the time. Hope to see some of you there!

We think and hope the payment system is up and running as usual again, please email if you are having any issues! Thank you everyone for your patience!

Dear All

Our next online zoom meeting is on Thursday 22 October 2020 at 7 pm. 

(nb: this is the fourth thursday of the month - to avoid the half term holiday)

Haematology Consultant Dr Caroline Betts will lead the session titled Haematology Dilemmas in Primary Care

The zoom link will be posted closer the time via the members forum and we can open the room from 6:45 for a general catch up.

Keep well and hope to see you there!

Noy and Ade on behalf of GLG
