Manchester Paediatric Club
The Paediatric section of the Manchester Medical Society is dedicated to the advancement of children and young people’s health. Our committee comprises of a mixture of paediatric & neonatal consultants, CAMH consultants, paediatric trainees and medical students.
We host regular educational meetings and seminars both in face and online. These are focused on providing updates in the latest topics in paediatric medicine. Our meetings are of benefit to anyone with an interest in child health and offer a place to meet likeminded individuals and an opportunity to network with colleagues from around the Northwest . The division runs an annual meeting where we invite abstracts from medical student and trainees with prizes awarded for best presentation.
Paediatrics is a highly collaborative specialty, and we enjoy working with other colleagues in other fields such as mental health, public health and general practioners. If you would like to join our section or have any suggestions for upcoming meetings, we would love to hear from you! Our contact email is admin@mms.org.uk.

Dr Steve Turner, the RCPCH President's recent blog (25th October 2024):
Dear Colleagues,
I had a great day in Manchester recently, attending the Manchester Paediatric Club, and look forward to joining the Scottish Paediatric Society St Andrew’s Day meeting next month. And I am really keen to attend more paediatric meetings.
One of the goals in our new strategy is to work more closely with local paediatric clubs and societies. This goal was supported by 77% of respondents in the membership survey earlier this year. The hope is that this works for all parties.'
