All those who had to cancel their attendance at #RCPsychIC for the industrial action I hope you can put your plans together. This means I will be there to watch the new Dean and President taking up office. 👏👏👏
At the last moment, ahead of next week’s action, the Government has moved and made a new offer for resident doctors in England. Strikes for 15–19 June have been called off while members vote on a new offer covering jobs, pay and progression. The choice is yours: Vote YES and accept the offer, or vote NO and return to escalated industrial action.
