When women in medicine are given visibility, opportunity and respect, the profession grows stronger for everyone. RCPE celebrates women by recognising those who came before and those shaping medicine today. From pioneering Fellows who opened doors to present-day physicians advancing care, education and leadership, progress has always been built through collective support. This International Women’s Day, we stand with the global theme Give To Gain. Together, we continue to raise standards and build systems that support doctors at every stage of their careers. #IWD2026 #GiveToGain #WomenInMedicine #SupportingDoctors
