RCP’s Library, Archive and Museum Services (LAMS) is proud to launch a new website to showcase the College’s rich 500-year history.

The RCP is delighted by Arts Council England's announcement that the Symons collection of medical objects has been gifted to the RCP museum.

Work has officially begun on The Spine – the RCP's new £35 million northern headquarters in Liverpool – following a recent ceremony to mark the breaking of the ground upon which it will be built.

Professor Andrew Goddard has assumed the presidency of the RCP, succeeding Professor Dame Jane Dacre.

On the day of the RCP's 500th anniversary, presidents Professor Dame Jane Dacre and Dr Andrew Goddard arrived at RCP HQ to hand over the new 500 Charter.

Dr Kristin Hussey discusses what to expect from the RCP's upcoming exhibition, 'This vexed question: 500 years of women in medicine'.

The RCP is inviting members, fellows and the general public to join us on and around 23 September in celebrating the 500th anniversary of the signing of its founding charter at a series of unique events. 

As the 500th birthday of the RCP fast approaches deputy CEO Clive Constable asks which of the founding principles are still relevant today, and whether we're still the same organisation as in 1518. 

In August, RCP president Professor Andrew Goddard embarked on the Welsh leg of his epic ‘RCP Cycle Charter Challenge’ accompanied by a motley crew of Welsh physicians. Dr Gethin R Ellis recounts the journey.  

The RCP is inviting members and medical professionals to join in our 500th anniversary celebrations by sending us a birthday message on social media.
