Volunteering opportunity: climate change workstream chair

In 2020 the College joined a number of other organisations in declaring a climate emergency. From then, we established the Climate Change Working Group. We're looking for a member to chair our workstream on research into the impact of climate change on children and young people.

We work with the Welsh Government and a range of external stakeholders to promote paediatric services and wider policy changes that our members want to see to improve the health of children and young people in Wales.
