The theme for this year’s Homelessness Awareness Panel is:

‘Homelessness: Moving from temporary to permanent accommodation’, in social work education, training, practice, and governance.

This event is bringing together a panel of speakers from across the social work and homelessness network, sharing a mixture of professional and personal experiences, insights and suggestions for practice improvement.

Who is this event for?

This event will be of considerable interest to those involved in social work and social care, whether at academic, policy, practice, managerial or regulatory levels. This is an opportunity to hear from a range of quality panelists, showcase best practice; and offer support and resources to those working in this important arena.
