Peer support enquiries

What this service offers

Peer support offers a confidential, informal space to talk through challenges with a peer working in O&G. This is not a formal mentoring or counselling service. Challenges might include:

  • Workplace issues or interpersonal difficulties
  • Career-related challenges 
  • Non-clinical concerns

Peer Supporters can:

  • Listen confidentially and without judgement
  • Help you find the right support e.g., via College resources or external services
  • Have an informal check-in when you need someone to talk to

Outside the role of the service:

  • Peer Supporters do not provide counselling, therapy or clinical advice
  • Peer Supporters cannot get involved in workplace disputes, grievances or employment matters
  • Peer Supporters do not replace any formal support process

Who can access this service?

The service is designed to support Fellows, Members and Associates working in the UK or Republic of Ireland. 

If you are a trainee, early career SAS or Locally Employed doctor, you can access tailored support through the network of regional Workplace Behaviour Champions.
