Dietitians (NDIG)

About the group

What we are

Neonatal Dietitians Interest Group (NDIG) is a sub group of the Paediatric Group of the British Dietetic Association providing an informal network for neonatal dietitians from the UK and Ireland.

Our aims

The aims of the group are:

  • To undertake joint collaborative audit and research to develop formalised standards and publish work.

  • To create a forum for discussion of current issues.

  • To formulate a network of dietitians within neonatology to share practice.

  • To provide evidence based education and advice to non-specialists and specialists in the field of neonatology through meetings, study days and a network of experts who can be contacted for advice.

  • To develop links with other professional groups working in neonatology.
