Join our Mental Capacity Advisory Group

We are looking to appoint new members to join the above existing group to help advise and guide members and the society on mental capacity issues.

The group meets approximately four times a year and reports directly to the Practice Board and involves advising on professional standards and good practice for psychologists, including:

  • the production and updating of guidance documents as relevant
  • promotion and advice on training opportunities as part of BPS CPD initiatives
  • responding to relevant correspondence from members and external parties

We are particularly looking for psychologists who are:

  • Working with people who have Learning Disabilities
  • Working with Older People
  • Working in the field of Health Psychology
  • Representatives from Devolved Nations

Please note: the society welcomes and encourages applications from people of all backgrounds and all levels of experience, particularly applications from people with a disability, BAME and LGBT+ who are currently under-represented across the society.

The society also welcomes and encourages applicants from the Devolved Nations.
