Each GP practice is a member of a local network, known as a Primary Care Network. (PCN.)
Each PCN has a Clinical Director who provides leadership to help shape strategic plans. They aim to work with member practices in their own, and wider group of PCNs across Wandsworth, to improve the quality and effectiveness of services available to patients.

How we work with PCNs
Through the Multispeciality Community Provider (MCP) contract we work collaboratively with the PCNs to bring all services in Wandsworth together.
We play a significant role in organising and supporting the primary care system in Wandsworth by providing effective and efficient leadership so local services can be managed and delivered effectively.
Part of that means working between primary care providers and the wider health and care system, and making sure primary care has a strong voice in Wandsworth. The recent creation of a formal collaborative between the nine PCNs through their Clinical Directors and the Federation working as Primary Care Wandsworth provides a positive first step in this direction at local level.
