Message from Jim Barwick, CEO

Over the last few months, Leeds GP Confederation has been looking at how we can do our very best for our members and thereby the people of Leeds. Since the Confed was created, the environment we all work in has changed. As well as the impacts of COVID, we’ve also been navigating the emergence of primary care networks (PCNs) -, changes to NHS legislation, and our ongoing learning and development. This has all led to a refining of the Confed and what we offer. We have spent a lot of time talking with practices and PCNs as well as colleagues in the wider health and care system to understand how it’s been for our members and partners. We’ve also looked at other federations and GP groups nationally. Listening and acting on what we’ve heard is an important principle of how we choose to work.
