The conference will address key areas of work currently of high priority and we aim to share information about national developments in policy and the research and evidence base, and then to consider the opportunities and challenges for their implementation locally. We will also be organising a Best Practice Market Place inviting all regions to take part and exhibit examples of good practice or work in progress.
