Striving for excellence Delivering positive health outcomes for children

RCPCH CPD approval applied for

I am honoured to have been invited to develop and chair this leading conference for a second consecutive year. Following the success of the launch National Child Health conference in 2011, the next programme will offer you even more. With the Healthy Child Progrmme high on the agenda, the 2012 conference has been designed to meet your personal learning needs in today’s challenging climate. With overstretched resources and tight budgets, conference prices are accessible and the programme focus is on essential clinical updates for your CPD. A mixture of plenary/concurrent sessions and a keynote address from Anne Milton, MP, Minister for Public Health, there is something for everyone delivering services from pregnancy to age 5, within the Healthy Child Programme. I can assure you that investing two days in this conference will boost your morale and ‘upskill’ your practice ready for tomorrow’s challenges. I look forward to seeing you in Telford.
