Your membership in London

Each member is represented on RCPCH Council by an Officer in their UK or international region. If you work and/or live in London, your Area Officer is Dr Richard Nicholl, and he is here to seek and promote your views on issues in paediatrics, child health and the College’s work. Find out about Dr Nicholl, how to get in touch, and see what's happening across London!

Please note! This is a pilot page for London. We hope to create web pages for members living in other areas of the UK and internationally.

Your Area Officer and how to contact them

The Area Officer for members in London is Dr Richard Nicholl.

I am a Consultant Neonatologist at Northwick Park Hospital and an Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer at Imperial College.  I’ve served in a number of College Roles: Clinical Tutor for over 12 years, examiner, CESR assessor, trainer and also previously as Regional Officer for North London. I look forward to representing our London members to the best of my ability.

You can contact Richard (or other Geographic Officers if you live in another area) through our short form. Feel free to share your ideas and questions.
