Message from the President

The British Psychological Society is both a learned and professional body and acts as the representative organisation for psychology in the UK.

We have a worldwide reputation for our work in advancing the science of psychology, communicating knowledge about psychology to the public and maintaining very high standards of training and practice for psychologists. I feel privileged to be part of such an influential and renowned body.

Psychologists increasingly contribute across a variety of domains, including business, sport, education and health and we are working with the UK Government to ensure the protection of the public by making it a legal requirement that practitioner psychologists are appropriately registered. You can find more information about statutory regulation of psychologists elsewhere on this site.

Our membership matters a great deal to us, and we very much welcome new members from all areas of psychology. If you would like to join the Society please go to our applications page.

Dr Elizabeth Campbell
President
