ACT - The Association for Children's Palliative Care

The International Children’s Palliative Care Alliance (ICPCN) is a worldwide network of agencies working with children and young people with life-limiting conditions. 

ICPCN shares a vision that the total needs of life-limited children and their families should be met, to encompass physical, emotional, social, spiritual and developmental aspects of care. 

ACT is currently carrying out the day to day administration of ICPCN, and one of our key tasks is developing a new ICPCN website which will host an “International Directory” of children’s palliative care professionals across the world.  It will be the first international website that represents all children’s palliative care services worldwide, and we plan to launch the site this autumn.

So why not become part of the network of organisations and individuals working in children's palliative care from all over the world - it’s free to join!

Any organisation or individual working in the field of children’s palliative care can join ICPCN.  If you join as an organisation you can register with ICPCN’s International Directory – an invaluable online resource to aid communication and networking across the world. Once our website is launched all members will gain access to ICPCN’s online discussion forum, receive an online newsletter, and you will also be able to submit your events, news and research to share with members and online visitors.
