This October: the 10th Anniversary of the annual #HatsOn4CPC campaign

This year marks a special anniversary of the Hats On for Children’s Palliative Care Campaign.


ICPCN are looking forward to the 10th Anniversary of their annual HatsOn4CPC campaign this year on Friday 13th October 2023! 

This year marks a special anniversary of the Hats On for Children’s Palliative Care Campaign. We will be celebrating ten years of raising awareness for children’s palliative care through #HatsOn4CPC. It has been an exciting journey since the first events in 2013 with support for #HatsOn4CPC and advocacy for children’s palliative care growing over the years. This has been made possible by the continuous support and advocacy efforts made by members, partners, and advocates for paediatric palliative care and by all the ICPCN staff and board members since 2013.

Whilst it has been great to see the developments in children’s palliative care globally we know that there is still a large unmet need around the world, with too many children and their families unable to access the care that they desperately need. So please do continue to ‘wear a hat’ in support of children’s palliative care and #HatsOn4CPC. This year the second Friday in October falls on Friday 13th October, so please join us to continue to raise awareness of the need for children’s palliative care and the work of children’s palliative care services worldwide. As the EAPC children and young persons reference group we will eb putting on our hats, and also holding our annual webinar around that time – please do look out for more details of the date, time and topic for that webinar.

We are in the process of finalising our toolkit which will soon be available on the ICPCN website, and please do register your #HatsOn4CPC events on the website so we can see what is happening around the world to advocate for children’s palliative care.

We look forward to hearing about your plans for the day!
