Care Sector Events

The event is brought to you by the Local Government Association, Tech for Care, Care Provider Alliance and Skills for Care.

We are holding a series of free, half-day workshops bringing together commissioners, care providers and technology suppliers to support the sector with embracing technology in care.

The purpose of the workshop is to learn from local areas where councils, providers and suppliers are working together to use technology to support quality of care. There will be an opportunity to hear about new digital developments, meet suppliers and hear from others who commission, deliver or work in social care.

There will also be an opportunity to hear from CQC and their perspective on digital social care.

The workshop will take place from 09.30 - 13.15 at Kings House Conference Centre, Manchester, followed by lunch, exhibition and networking.

A full programme for the workshop will follow.
