Welcome to the welfare pages of the GP website! The GP welfare team are here to help you by pointing you in the right direction if you need specific support or just being about if you need a chat. Our contact details are available if you want to drop us an email directly, but otherwise the general GP email gp@pem.cam.ac.uk should get a prompt response for a matter that is non-confidential.

Additionally, we have put below the details of a broad range of services that are easily accessible for anything you would like more information about or to discuss.
