Healthcare workers have been told to "remain vigilant" and travel in groups by the Royal College of GPs after the past week of violence.

The college is concerned about reports of "horrific and completely unacceptable" abuse and violence against GPs and their staff, "especially those from ethnic minorities".

"Where possible and appropriate, travel in groups, avoid known areas of unrest, and keep your mobile phones charged and accessible," the body says.
