Special interest groups
Formed from informal peer groups, special interest groups are composed of members (organisational and individual) who share a particular professional interest. These groups can be created freely by members for any purpose congruent with UKCP's mission and values. UKCP supports these groups by putting up notices on the website and in The Psychotherapist and sending out mailings to a specific group of members, for example by region or area of interest. A special interest group can also put in a request for a College to send emails to their members.
In line with UKCP statutes, special interest groups can apply to the Psychotherapy Council (PC) for recognition as a faculty. If accepted by the PC, they gain representation at the College and Faculty Committee (CFC) and may choose to present an annual faculty workplan and budget request to the UKCP Finance Committee, which is then passed to the Board for Trustees to make a decision.
