Event Details
A Sessional GP refers to any GP who is not working as a principal and includes:
Salaried GPs, Locums, Returners, Retainers, Out of Hours and Prison GPs.
Our annual Sessional GP Conference has been running for the last nine years and is being held again this year at the Anglia Ruskin University.
It will consist of four main plenaries and two sets of workshops as usual.

Workshops:
- CPR Training
- Child Safeguarding – 1 hour 5 minutes consistent with Level 3 training, based around the Toxic Trio
