The LMC has worked hard to raise the collective
voice and profile of our GPs, at a local level and
we have invested heavily to ensure we have
strong networked relationships with the key
organisations and decision-makers across
Cheshire.
We worked hard to build a good working
relationship with the single CCG resulting in the
establishment of trust, successful discussion
and negotiation. We also turned our focus to
improving relationships with the Local
Authorities, Acute Trusts and the emergent
Integrated Care System (ICS) and Integrated
Care Providers (ICPs).

Programmes for GPs
