The National Collaborating Centre for Women's and Children's Health (NCC-WCH) is one of four national collaborating centres commissioned by NICE to develop national guidelines.

The children's section of the NCC-WCH produces guidelines relating to child health. These include: 

• Atopic eczema in children
• Meningitis in children
• Feverish Illness in children

The RCPCH works closely with the NCC-WCH to help ensure guidelines are developed to meet the needs of children. This is ensured through the following:

• NCC-WCH representation on the RCPCH Quality of Practice Committee
  
• RCPCH representation on the NCC-WCH Board and Executive Committee
  
• Alerting College members to opportunities to contribute to the development of child health guidelines
  
• Promoting and disseminating the key messages of NCC-WCH guidelines to College members through our website
