You have probably noticed that things have changed. Have you lost your regular family doctor? You are not alone. The past decade has seen us lose far too many surgeries and thousands of GPs.
General Practice is collapsing. Every practice across England is struggling to keep its doors open.

Did you know?
If general practice received a fairer share of NHS funding we could:
- Train and hire more GPs
- Deliver the services you require
- Make it easier to get the appointments you need
- In the last 5 years GP practices have lost funding worth over £660 million
- We're not allowed to use the poor funding we have to recruit more GPs or more practice nurses
- GPs and their team are losing morale
- No matter how many hours we work, we still can't see all the patients that need our care
This is why you may not always see your GP
General practice is being broken. We know you deserve better than this.
GPs are on your side.
