RCPCH strategy 2024-34: Phase 1 2024-27

Our three-year strategy speaks to our members’ stated priorities: to support paediatricians' working lives and to advocate for a healthier future for children and young people. Our four strategic goals are set in a 10-year strategic outlook.

Our vision is a world where every child is healthy and well.

Our mission is to advance child health practice, shape policy, set educational standards and empower paediatricians. We are led by insights from our members, children and young people.

Our values are to innovate, influence, include and lead.

Over our three-year strategy, these aim to free up our time and resources, which can in turn be used to create greater impact for our members and for child health.

Our enablers:

  • Improve the member experience
  • Improve the offer for members with College roles and staff
  • Enable efficiencies and diversify our income
