Safe surgeries

GP surgeries are often the first place people seek help. But many face barriers — especially those who are migrants, people without ID, or those in insecure housing. Safe surgeries remove those barriers and make sure everyone can get care when they need it.

What we’re working on

  • Training GP practices – supporting staff to remove barriers to registration

  • Promoting inclusive care – sharing the Safe Surgeries toolkit with practices

  • Raising awareness – helping communities understand their right to see a GP

  • Growing the network – increasing the number of surgeries signed up across south London

Our priorities

  • Increase the number of GP practices across south London signed up as Safe Surgeries

  • Share best practice and success stories across boroughs

  • Work with local communities to raise awareness of people’s rights to register with a GP

  • Embed inclusive practice into wider NHS and community services
