Association of Paediatric Chartered Physiotherapists

The 49th APCP AGM will be held at 19:30 on Wednesday 9 November 2022 via Zoom 

Minutes from the AGM 2021 can be found below, along with the agenda for this year and financial statement for 2021/2022.

We do ask all APCP members to attend if possible, it will be very brief but if any decisions need voting on, we have to be quorate.

This guideline published on the NICE website covers identifying, assessing and managing obesity in children (aged 2 years and over), young people and adults. In September 2022, evidence was reviewed on anthropometric measures for assessing health risks associated with overweight and obesity in adults and updated the recommendations on identifying and assessing overweight, obesity and central adiposity. NICE has also produced guidelines on obesity prevention, maintaining a healthy weight, and lifestyle weight management services for adults and for children and young people.

This new guideline covers children and young people in primary and secondary education (key stages 1 to 5). It also covers people 25 years and under with special educational needs or disability in further education.
