The Medicines for Children project board

Medicines for Children is run by a group of representatives from the RCPCH, the NPPG and WellChild, as well as other medical professionals who work in areas of child health including nursing, General Practice, and medical trainees.

At any one time there are around 10 members of the Medicines for Children board. The board meets three times a year (February, June, October) with meetings lasting around 1hr 30 in length. The meetings cover a wide range of topics concerning the governance and strategy of Medicines for Children and plans for the future. The meetings are often very enjoyable as well as productive.

The Medicines for Children team is still looking for a representative from Primary Care to join the programme board. Full information on the role and how to apply is available here:
