Welcome to our Conference Page!

 

Our annual event for 2023 was ‘Welly Fest!
The Annual Network event is always a highly anticipated event, with service users and staff working together throughout the year to plan and prepare. The planning group for 2023 were keen to get outdoors and thought a music festival would be a great idea to bring people together.
The event saw musical performances, a Silent Disco, Welly themed activities, lovely food and a festival atmosphere.

Our most recent event was our “Big Get Together!”
