  • 5th UK Dementia Congress

The 5th UK Dememtia Congress will be held on 9th-11th November at the Bournemouth International Centre. It offers an exciting mix of plenary sessions, parallel session, workshops and posters as well as early bird and lunchtime special interest sessions. There will also be a dedicated Alzheimer's Society stream.

On the opening evening of Congress, our popular debate keeps up the tradition of discussing lively and controversial issues. The motion this year is 'Life-long care at home for people with dementia is an impossible dream', to be proposed by Martin Green of ECCA and opposed by campaigner and former carer Barbara Pointon.   

The main Congress will open with members of the Alzheimer's Society Living with Dementia programme and Uniting Carers Dementia UK 

Keynote speakers this year will include Professor Alistair Burns, National Clinical Director for Dementia, Department of Health, Professor Alexander Kurz, Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Technische Universitat Munchen, Germany and Professor Peter Whitehouse, Professor of Neurology at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio.

Social events will include the Welcome Drinks Reception on 9th November and the Congress Drinks Reception on 10th November that all delegates are welcome to attend. The Congress Dinner on 10th November will see the launch of the first ever National Dementia Care Awards. Tickets for the dinner can be ordered on the booking form.

  • 3rd National Care Homes Congress

Dear Colleague,
Following the success of the 2nd National Care Homes Congress in 2009, this is the third national congress aimed at providers and suppliers to private, voluntary and public sector care homes. It takes the form of five 2-day conferences merged into one single event presenting and examining the evidence for best practice in care homes offering care to older people.


The Congress provides those working in care homes with the perfect annual opportunity to get together, network, discuss and report on the evidence for what should be happening in care homes. 


As you will see, the Congress examines the pressing issues for care homes, including law and regulation, older people’s mental health, challenging behaviour, staff development and cost effective management. There is also an active social programme with a wine reception, breakfast workshops, a Congress buffet dinner and plenty of space in the exhibition for networking.
The National Care Homes Congress is already established as the single event which, supported by ECCA, NCA, NCF and RNHA, draws all staff together to learn from and teach each other. It is a must-attend event for all those seeking to implement evidence-based practice in modern care homes. To download a booking form please click here or use the details below to book online.

With warmest wishes,
Dr Richard Hawkins, Editor-in-Chief, Caring Times
