About the conference
Building on the success of our three online State of Caring conferences, this year Carers UK will bring together key speakers and sector leaders to look at new developments for carers that are strategically and practically important in the field of rights, recognition and support for carers. We’ll be focussing on how this enables us to take carers’ support further, within the current system changes and the tough operating environment.
As well as taking in the health and care landscape, we’ll be looking forward to what we can expect over the coming year and, what we might expect with a General Election on the horizon.
Whether you are a commissioner, policy lead, practitioner or service delivery lead, this conference is for you.
