Save the date – Care Home Conference & Awards extension

Save the date – Care Home Conference & Awards extension

We have made the decision to postpone our annual Care Home Conference until the beginning of next year. The conference was due to take place between 25-27 November, but will now take place between 19-21 January 2021.

This is likely to be a virtual event similar to the Homecare Festival that we held in early October. More information on the Care Home Conference to follow.

As the dates for the Care Home Conference has been pushed back, we also decided to extend award entries for the Care Home Awards, the new nomination deadline is Monday 16 November, 9AM . The awards ceremony itself will be a virtual event on the evening of Friday 22 January. 

Find out more about the awards and submit your entries here.
