We can provide up to six hours of free peer to peer coaching over the course of 12 months.

The service support offer is suitable for anyone who feels they are stuck on a particular problem or opportunity either within their personal or professional lives. We are able to work with you to empower you to create and work towards goals that feel right for you.

Our coaches don’t give advice but work with you through recognised coaching models to achieve this. All our coaches are GPs so understand the role and sessions are predominantly virtual meaning you don’t have to take time out of your day to travel to and from a venue making it easy to fit around other commitments.

The service is self-directed and is suitable for those who are willing to engage and have time to do so.

An outline of how we work to support you locally:

• You complete an online referral form and once this is complete you will be linked with a coach
• The confirmed coach will then make contact to introduce themselves, start planning an initial session and send over contracting information within two weeks.
• Coaches will then work with you over 12 months to provide up to six hours of support, this can be in one or two hour sessions. You may be asked to provide feedback via an online form, emailed to you directly, at certain stages.
• At the end of the support you will be notified by your coach that sessions are closing and will be asked to complete a final feedback form.

If you stay in a GP-S area after your CCT as a GP you can also access the remaining three hours of support with us! Just state you’re a ST3 in your initial message to our team and we’ll get you started.

Please note: GP-S is a non-emergency service providing peer to peer coaching using predominantly the Egan model. This is a coaching service for clients who would like support with personal or professional development including being stuck on moving forward with problems or opportunities. It is not suitable for individuals suffering with poor mental health or needing practical hands-on support. If you feel you need immediate support please call 999 or 111 or get in touch with NHS Practitioner Health who can support with mental health concerns.
