Your diversity data

The College is seeking to learn more about the diversity of its membership.

This is so we can provide the best support possible and deliver on our commitments, as set out in our Equality Action Plan, to promote equality and equitable outcomes for members, College staff, mental health staff, exam candidates, and patients and carers.

To make this possible, we need to ensure the information we hold about our members is detailed, accurate and up to date.

Following a review last year of the information we were already collecting, we have expanded the demographic information categories and, in some cases, expanded the multiple-choice answer options available to the questions.

These updates have also helped us ensure we are consistent in our approach to equality, diversity and inclusion data gathering.

We are therefore asking our members to take a moment to fill in the new demographics form and review any existing answers. The process is very straightforward and will take less than two minutes. 

The College has a strict privacy policy and will only use your information to guide our future actions. To update now, please log in to your RCPsych web account or visit our demographics page.
