Our members play a vital role in the development of clinical guidance that set standards for high-quality women's healthcare.
This ranges from joining our guideline committees, informing our scientific advisory work to contributing to consultations, peer reviews and quality assurance.
The College collaborates with a range of stakeholders to ensure our patient information resources capture the views of women and people on the care they receive. Patient input is at the heart of everything we do.
"I was keen to make a real difference in maternity care at the national level. It is a great sense of achievement to be able to make a difference and shoulder the accountability that comes with it. It helps me develop personally and professionally"
"The most rewarding aspect of my roles is to be able to provide evidence based information that supports excellent clinical care across the breadth of obstetrics and gynaecology and being able to provide support for colleagues and women"
"Getting involved in the work of the College is one of the best career decisions I have made. It has helped me in my own personal job satisfaction, kept me challenged and interested as the years have gone by, and made me feel part of a much wider professional community"
"The RCOG has been very supportive and I want to be able to contribute back to my colleagues. Volunteering also allows me to network and learn from like-minded people. I had the privilege of serving on two committees, both with exceptional members"
