We are deeply thankful to Prof. Deborah Sturdy for her participation in the Social Care Nursing Advisory Council discussion. She also surprised Karen Roberts and Sanjay Dhrona by presenting them with a prestigious CNO Gold Award.

World Mental Health Day - 10th October 2024

To mark World Mental Health Day, we asked delegates to tell us what support your workplace provides or what you wish they would do to support mental health in your workplace.

All entries were put into a draw to win a fabulous hamper provided by Cadbury’s.

We are excited to announce Niamh Campbell as the winner!

Niamh is the Quality Assurance Manager at David Lewis, a company that offers in-house counselling for one-on-one sessions and group workshops focused on well-being, stress management, and anxiety.

Congratulations, Niamh! Your hamper is on its way!

 

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all of our panelists for generously giving their time to participate in the Learning Lounge, and to everyone who attended.

Special thanks go to:

  • Our Headline sponsor, Howden, for kindly hosting a drinks reception during the final session on day one, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

  • Closer Still Media, for once again organizing the Care Show and making it such a great success.

We look forward to seeing you again soon at ExCEL London in April 2025!
