Imagine watching your child endure unimaginable pain. For millions of families, this is the heartbreaking reality as they care for their child dying from a life-limiting condition. Palliative care is about caring for a child's body, mind & spirit while supporting families through their darkest days. ICPCN works globally to improve palliative care for the 21 million children worldwide who need it, through Communication, Advocacy, Research, Education & Strategic development.
>19 million children worldwide need palliative care but can't access it, leaving them to suffer needlessly and their families forced to cope without the emotional & practical support they need during the most difficult times of their lives. Addressing this urgent healthcare gap is critical to providing the quality care and support every child & family deserves. This isn't just a matter of discomfort; it's about dignity, compassion & helping children experience moments of joy, free from pain.
ICPCN's mission is to achieve the best quality of life & care for children, their families and carers worldwide. Our specialist programme of communication, advocacy, research, education & strategic development, gives health professionals the tools and skills they need to provide better care so that families can access the support that they need. Prioritising CPC is essential & we need your support to make this a reality.
Investing in CPC now will drive significant change for millions of families globally; enabling ICPCN to expand access, improve quality, & build local capacity for CPC in countries where it is needed the most. Funding will enable us to strengthen global support systems, train health and social care professionals and ensure that millions of children are able to live a life free from pain, experiencing joy even during their hardest moments.
