The RCGP virtual conference A vision for the future of general practice 2026 is dedicated to limiting our environmental impact through the careful consumption of energy and resources. Organised by Wonderly (a division of Haymarket Media Group), we believe in leading by example to ensure a healthier planet for the communities we serve.

Please see below for more information on how we are achieving sustainability
| Reduced travel emissions | Eliminating the need for people who travel, removing the carbon footprint associated with transportation. |
| Energy efficiency | Hosting a virtual conference typically requires far less energy compared to an in person conference |
| Digital communication | Utilising digital communication means no printed materials. |
| Waste reduction | Physical materials such as banners, badges, and promotional items will not be used. These items often end up as waste. |
| Accessibility & Inclusivity | The conference will provide an opportunity for greater inclusivity as it is accessible to GP's from across the country without the need for long-distance (and in some cases emission-heavy) travel. This format also enables us to offer free access to members. This inclusivity can contribute to a more sustainable participation and social mobility. |
| Recording & re-use | Where possible, sessions will be available on demand up to three months post event. This enables attendees to access content later. This not only provides convenience but also reduces the demand for additional live streaming and associated energy consumption. |
