Special Interest Groups (SIGs)

Aside from our faculties, which represent the main specialties within psychiatry, the College also has 15 Special Interest Groups (SIGs) which provide a forum for members to come together in a particular area of psychiatry.

Our SIGs lead on key issues within psychiatry and mental health, such as diversity, marginalised groups and sustainability. Each Special Interest Group has a Chair and an Executive Committee.
