Our patient population
As a central London federation, we cover a resident population of over 275,000 people within our 31 member GP Practices.
Our patient cohort is diverse in regards to age, gender, sex, race, ethnicity and socio-economic background. It also means we clinically treat a broad range of conditions and diseases.
We also have a number of specialised practices that serve those experiencing homelessness and rough sleeping.
This fosters our goal of making clinical research patient participation as inclusive and diverse as possible. It also helps deliver more robust clinical data, resulting in better real-world clinical outcomes for everyone.
Our position in the centre of London makes us well-placed to attract a high number of research participants who can easily reach our facilities.
