In tough times it is critical that the 1.56 million people who work in adult social care have the skills, knowledge and qualifications to deliver high quality social care. Continuing to invest in the development of a well trained and flexible workforce is essential for every social care provider to not only survive but thrive.

This year's conference will bring together a mix of keynote speakers and workshops to give delegates the bigger picture of what is going on in our sector and how to tackle the new ways of working that impact on the day to day job of providing adult social care.

Standard booking rate from 1 January £220 + VAT

Confirmed speakers include:

• Paul Burstow MP, Minister for Care Services
• Sharon Allen, CEO, Skills for Care.

CfWI are exhibiting at the event and will be demonstrating the Social worker Supply and Demand model.
