College Elections - please use your option to VOTE ONLINE!
Since the start of 2011, and in order to make the process easier
for members, you now have the option to vote online directly to the
Electoral Reform Services. It is hoped that this will
encourage greater participation in College elections. Please
keep an eye open for your next opportunity to vote, and
discover how easy it is!
Trent Division Media Response
The Trent Division would like to encourage local Consultants to
respond to local media issues more in the future.
The first step is to create a register of
those within the Trent Division who have been media trained, and
then work towards establishing a team to be led by Dr Deborah
Chaloner. Please contact the Divisional Office if you have
been media trained and would be willing to respond to local
issues.
If anyone is interested in being media trained
then please also contact the Divisional Office.

About the Trent Division
The Trent Division of The Royal College of Psychiatrists covers
the following areas: Barnsley, Doncaster, Leicestershire,
Lincolnshire, North Derbyshire, South Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire,
Rotherham, Sheffield and the South Humber.
This is a large geographical area stretching from Sheffield in
the north, to Leicester in the south, and from the Pennines in the
west to the Lincolnshire coast and the Wash in the east. There are
three medical schools in the Division at Sheffield, Nottingham and
Leicester.
The Trent Division Executive Committee meets every 3 months at
different venues within the region, and an Annual Meeting with
a substantial academic content takes place once a year. The
Trent Division CPD Committee meets prior to Executive Committee
meetings. The Annual Meeting is open to all Members and
Associates of the Division - it has CPD approval and
includes various prizes and
competitions. The Executive Committee of the Trent Division is
particularly keen to encourage CPD and Affiliateship, and fully
supports the College in its drive against stigma.
