Have you considered standing for election to College Council? We have six vacancies for consultants and one vacancy for an anaesthetist in training.

Self-nominations for election to the Council of the Royal College of Anaesthetists are now open.

In our manifesto, Tackling Welsh NHS waiting lists: the role of anaesthesia, we urge political parties ahead of the 2026 Senedd elections to take action on waiting lists by funding more doctors to train as anaesthetists.

Pregnant women and people will benefit from accessible, evidence-based information on the risks and side effects of epidurals and spinal anaesthesia, thanks to new patient resources launched today by the Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA) and the Obstetric Anaesthetist Association (OAA).

Stockport NHS Foundation Trust has been accredited under the RCoA Anaesthesia Clinical Services Accreditation (ACSA) scheme.

The College is delighted to announce details of awards from the September 2025 meeting of the RCoA Nominations Committee.

This update sets out Council's current position on the Leng Review following discussion at the September Council meeting.
