How to join

Membership of the PCPLD Network is open to anyone who is interested in promoting excellent palliative and end of life care for people with learning disabilities. This includes professionals, (family) carers, and people with learning disabilities themselves.

Membership is free. Members receive an electronic newsletter and can, if they wish, receive email alerts of carefully selected conferences, research, meetings and other issues of interest. Requests for help or advice from other members can also be circulated.

To join, email your details to Dr Irene Tuffrey-Wijne at info@pcpld.org. Please include your full name and place of work (if applicable). It also helps us to know whether you are a family carer or a person with learning disabilities. Also let us know if you wish to opt out of receiving email alerts.

Donations
