About the Trent Division
The Trent Division of the Royal College of Psychiatrists covers
the following areas: Barnsley, Doncaster, Leicestershire,
Lincolnshire, 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 Conference
with a substantial academic content takes place once a
year. The Annual Conference 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.
