| The Society aims to advance for the public benefit education, clinical training and patient care in paediatric endocrinology, diabetes, and related subjects by promoting research in such areas and disseminating the useful results of such research, by the means of meetings, publications in any form and by any other appropriate means.
Membership is open "to those actively engaged in the clinical care of children with endocrinological disorders and diabetes mellitus and to those conducting research related to those problems". Therefore, membership is open to members and non-members of the RCPCH.
