RCGP begins final move to new headquarters

The RCGP will move the last of its staff into its new £34m headquarters in London this weekend as it seeks to expand its capabilities.

The college is busy packing up its temporary offices near St Paul's in the City of London and will complete the move to its new, grade 2-listed premises near Euston Station by Monday.

It says the new headquarters will offer 'unparalleled services to members'. Facilties include an examination centre, members' lounge, study bedrooms, a 300-seat auditorium and conference facilities.

Unseasonal downpours in the spring meant the move was delayed by a couple of weeks.

The college occupied the original Princes Gate site in central London for almost half a century.
