This is the first in a two-part series of FREE online conferences. We will cover a variety of clinical issues affecting ethnic minority patients in the UK, and focus on data, diagnoses and management that affect these patient groups. Our aim is to move from conversations to actions, improving patient care in General Practice. The design and delivery of this conference is a collaborative effort of the RCGP faculties of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

1. Understand the evidence linking ethnicity, protected characteristics, and health outcomes
2. Acknowledge the ethnic minority patients’ perspectives of health and illness
3. Promote the best management within primary care
4. Promote partnerships working with local organisations and community assets to improve patient care
