Events
“NCMD is really helpful and informative; it’s great to finally have a ‘central’ point of contact” anonymous feedback to NCMD survey (October 2020)
NCMD participates in a variety of events relating to Child Death Review (CDR) and child health and social care throughout the year. From presentations, workshops, Q&As and other activities, the aim of our participation is to share our knowledge and understanding to improve and save children’s lives.
**Currently, due to COVID-19, fewer events are being run and many are being held online**
