There has been growing interest in the use of puppets in hospital settings in recent years. If you are using puppets already in hospitals (as a puppeteer, therapist, doctor etc) anywhere in the world and would be interested in the development of an international network to support and share this work, please email Commission President Cariad Astles.

We are planning to hold a networking event and launch next year. Please pass this on to any medical/hospital staff also using puppetry in their work. Please note that this is for people already working in these contexts. One of the aims is to set up training in this field but we are not yet at this juncture.
