We believe it is vital that our activities and the positions we adopt reflect our members' views.
Elected representation
Our elected representatives are:
- President and Vice Presidents
- Members of Council
- Trainees & Members’ Committee
- Regional Advisers in the UK and Overseas
A number of Faculties are also represented on the Council. Other College office bearers are appointed through open advertisement and recruitment from within the Fellowship.
Discovering the views of our members
We carry out targeted surveys of Fellows and Members to inform major strategic or operational decisions.
We also have two member panels that complete regular, more detailed surveys.
Our membership includes Fellows and Members with particular expertise. We take their advice and comments into account on external policy consultations.
External representation
The College is represented on a large number of external medical and health-related bodies. These include the UK and Scottish Academies of Medical Royal Colleges and Faculties.
