If you are a PA, please take a moment to read this open letter and put your name to it 🤝🏼

We are calling for an emergency meeting with all interested MAPs to discuss recent developments that impact us all. Given the recent challenges, as well as our announcement of potential legal action against the RCGP, we believe it’s essential to communicate openly and provide clear updates.    As mentioned in our previous letters, the decision to explore legal action was made after careful consideration. We have seen an alarming rise in employment disputes following the potentially reckless guidance issued by the RCGP, and previously the BMA; and it is also clear that certain organisations and those with vested interests have been working to undermine and attack our role in protecting and advocating for the MAPs profession. Many of you have expressed confusion about how to protect your employment rights in this challenging environment.    We have therefore scheduled a meeting to provide clarity on the events that have led us here, as well as clear guidance on the steps you can take to safeguard your rights and navigate these disputes.   Join us for an Emergency Q&A session on Sunday, 3rd November, at 7pm on Teams. This Q&A is open to ALL Medical Associate Professionals. We understand this is short notice, but we urge you to attend to make your voices heard.
