Get ready for an action-packed autumn of conferences, the Wales Care Awards & our Essential Updates
Social care workers can look forward to an action-packed schedule of events this autumn with opportunities for learning, networking and socialising.
CFW is involved in supporting two major conferences - on October 9 our chairman Mario Kreft will chair the 10th Annual Care Conference for Wales in Cardiff at the Cardiff City Stadium. And on November 11 Cymorth Cymru and Care Forum Wales will be holding Wales’ inaugural Care Provider Summit.
September 17 will see the free, All Wales Nurse Conference held in Venue Cymru, Llandudno. It is being hosted by Care Forum Wales, North West Wales Nurse Forum and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board. There's still just time to book a place by contacting janet@careforumwales.co.uk.
October will also see the return of CFW's invaluable twice-yearly Essential Updates aimed at registered providers, managers and senior staff working in social care in Wales. Not forgetting the glittering annual event, the Wales Care Awards, which take place in Cardiff's City Hall on October 24.
