About the conference

Across three focused days we combine research and practice. Day One sets the agenda with keynotes and track panels. Day Two is hands-on with skills workshops and a doctoral clinic. Day Three showcases practitioner case studies and posters, then closes with a joint action session. Delegates leave with new contacts, practical tools and a clear view of current work in the field.
