Our story

We are an empowering and supportive association founded by General Practitioners (GPs) of African origin living and/or working across Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire in the United Kingdom.

Born from a shared heritage and professional drive, our association was created to foster connection, mutual support, and collaborative excellence among members of African descent within the local primary care community.

Membership is voluntary and warmly open to all GPs of African origin whose main domicile or main place of work is within Hertfordshire or Bedfordshire. We believe in strengthening each other professionally while collectively serving the diverse communities where we live and practice.

Join us as we work together to thrive and make a meaningful impact in UK healthcare.
