The next Annual General Meeting will now be an online-only event on Tuesday 2 June, a few weeks after RCPCH Conference, and we'll invite all members to join us.
Volunteering is vital to our work, with over 3,000 members contributing each year. Can you help us shape paediatrics, support future generations and influence healthcare while you gain leadership, networks and invaluable professional growth?
We are reviewing the programme of assessment for doctors in postgraduate paediatric training, to ensure that the assessments taken in the workplace and our examinations are fair, fit for purpose and sustainable.
Thirty years of paediatrics with RCPCH. Millions of moments that mattered. We invite you to share your story: what do you enjoy most about your work and what keeps you going even in those challenging days?
Our new 'Greener paediatrics' pages give you tips, useful resources and guidance for integrating environmentally responsible practices into your everyday clinical work.
We're excited to return to Birmingham for this year's conference from 11 to 13 May, on the theme, '30 years of RCPCH: Reflect, celebrate and inspire'. Can you join us?

These awards are aimed at researchers in the early years of running their own groups, for whom receipt of the prize would make a significant difference to their research work. The Institute accepts applications from tenured and non-tenured researchers, clinicians and non-clinicians to undertake high quality biomedical research and has no priority diseases or restrictions on the research area supported.
Friends of Rosie aims to provide “pump-priming” funds of one or two years’ duration to research and clinical investigators who are addressing paediatric cancers. The goal is to provide funds that will lever major longer-term funding from established funders (e.g. CRUK, Leukaemia UK, MRC, ESRC etc.).
Provide funding to encourage and further medical research in a variety of areas. Applications are invited from doctors and research scientists and can be for either research in progress or prospective research.
Blood Cancer UK invites research proposals addressing novel questions in blood cancer. Research should support BCUK's strategic goal of attaining a world where no one dies as a result of blood cancer or its treatments.
In 2019 we responded to NHS England’s consultation on cancer services for children, teenagers and young adults. While we welcomed the direction of travel we identified a number of areas for improvement.
