Latest Facebook Cover Picture of West Wales Sun and Surf Spot
Our latest Facebook cover image is of a well-known West Wales sun and surf spot.
Our new Facebook image was submitted Swansea GP Jo Thomas GP of someone on the sand dunes at Llangenith on the Gower.
We've been updating our Facebook page every Wednesday for the past few weeks with an entry from a photographic competition being run by RCGP Wales called “Where I Work” which celebrates the organisation's 60th Anniversary this year.
As part of the contest, the College has asked members to send it images associated with their workplace with the winning entries set to be displayed in the Cymru Wales Room in the RCGP's new HQ in Euston Square, London, when it opens later this year.
WaMH in PC has an interest in the College as we were established by its Welsh branch back in 2003 to act as a special interest working group to promote primary mental health care and improve mental health services across Wales.
We're trying to contact as many entrants as possible to ask for their permission to show-off their photographic skills via Facebook so if you've entered and would like to see your photo on our page then please don't hesitate to get in touch.
All you have to do is email your image, its name and your details to our Project Manager Lesley Hills at lhills@rcgp.org.uk and we'll look into adding it to our page over the coming weeks.
