The 24th Managing Drug and Alcohol Problems in Primary Care Conference 2020 will take place on Thursday 30 & Friday 31st January 2020 at RCGP HQ, 30 Euston Square, London.

This joint Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) and Substance Misuse Management Good Practice (SMMGP) conference is the largest event in the UK for GPs, shared care workers, nurses and other primary care staff, specialists, commissioners and researchers interested in, and involved with the management of drug and alcohol users in primary care.

The conference will explore the roles primary care can play in drug and alcohol services, for example in the added value of being able to address coexisting health issues.

The theme for this conference is Navigating in Stormy Weather - with shrinking budgets there is a greater need to meet together to share best practice, get encouragement from other areas and learn how it is still possible to provide an effective service.
