About the ABPN
The ABPN is a UK-based network of children's nurses with a wide membership of experts in clinical practice, education, leadership and research.

It
is the oldest children's nursing association in the world.

Our aim is to promote the development of children's nursing through evidence-based information about practice and education.

We are an active association that works with its members to influence policy and to lobby for the best educational opportunities for pre- and post-registration education.
