President’s Annual Report
We hold our AGM during the Annual Conference. Judy Davies, our president, has now written her annual report, and you can find it in the ‘About us section’. If you are coming to the conference, it would help if you could read it before the AGM. If you aren’t coming, it will give you a summary of the last year’s work.
AHPCC Annual Conference 2013 – just days to go!
This will be the last update until after the Conference. I hope you’re coming, and that you have an enjoyable time. We’re just putting the finishing touches to everything and we’re looking forward to it.
Membership renewals.
If you have an invoice to pay, or you want to apply for or renew your membership, please email me at editor@ahpcc.org.uk and I’ll give you the current arrangements. We should have a proper arrangement in place soon after the AGM.
Members’ Forum
Don’t forget the forum. New members will need a password, and there will be a new password coming out for everyone else in the next week or two. This will be as secure, but easier to remember, and valid well into 2014. Existing passwords will remain valid until then, and I will email you individually at the time, to avoid the information being blocked as spam.

Here, you will find information about the AHPCC – who we are, what we do, our history, and information about our regional groups and their activities. This section is still developing.
Every month, we highlight media items that may be of interest. There is also a message board to allow the sharing of ideas. This section is due for further development.
The emphasis here is on sharing practical ideas and resources – everything from assessment tools and care plans, to prayers and poetry.
This contains more academic items – book reviews, journal articles, and links to publications from related organisations. You will also find handouts and notes from previous AHPCC Conferences.
This contains professional standards, competencies, guidelines, code of conduct, and also current vacancies. For prospective employers, there are sample person specs, job descriptions and pay scale guidance to assist in recruitment, and also a vacancies section where posts can be advertised.
Here, you can find details of coming training events and courses relevant to spiritual palliative care. You will also find up-to-date information about the AHPCC’s popular Annual Conference here.
If you need to contact the AHPCC, would like to join, or need to renew your membership, you can find contact details and a booking form here. You will also find links to other chaplaincy and relevant organisations, including the UK Board for Healthcare Chaplaincy.
