At #RCPMED26 we launched our 2026–30 strategy — setting a clear direction for how we support physicians and help shape the future of healthcare and the NHS.
Built through engagement with our members and fellows, the strategy reflects what physicians told us matters most: a college that listens, supports and speaks up for the profession and patients.
Our four priorities:
🟣 Connection
🟡 Standards
🟢 Voice
🔵 Renewal
Our president, professor Mumtaz Patel, said: “This is a strategy built on listening. Now it is time to act.”
Together, we can strengthen our profession, improve patient care and help shape a healthier future for all.

In 2026, smoking remains the biggest avoidable cause of death and disability in the UK. But the impact is not equal across the nation.
Today, we have launched a new report on smoking, health and social justice that shows smoking inequality is not driven by individual choice, but by structural factors - including the social determinants of health and the ongoing influence of the tobacco industry.
We are calling on government to introduce opt-out smoking cessation services into all NHS settings so that support reaches those who need it most.
