Strategies for Survival: Adapting to the Government's New Agenda

26th November 2010

Ricoh Arena, Coventry, CV6 6G

Come and join us to network, learn & strategise in response to the Comprehensive Spending Review

Support Solutions is delighted to announce our 2nd National Conference at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry on 26th November 2010. We have selected an excellent venue and we are keeping delegate and exhibitor costs to an absolute minimum with discounts for bookings of 3 delegates or more delegates.

Speakers include Lord Victor Adebowale (Social Enterprise Ambassador & CEO of Turning Point), Michael Patterson (housing support & social care expert & Director of Support Solutions) & Geraldine Haden (housing management lawyer & Partner at Gorrara Haden Solicitors) & an Expert Panel.

If you are involved in providing or commissioning housing, support & social care services for vulnerable people you should be there! This is an ideal networking, learning & problem solving opportunity.

We find ourselves in a situation of economic crisis & public expenditure cuts, the retrenchment of Supporting People, concerns about revenue and contracts, the Comprehensive Spending Review & fundamental changes to the way we work including but not limited to the Personalisation Agenda.

The primary outcomes for this conference are that delegates should understand:

How housing, support & social care is evolving including the Comprehensive Spending Review
The legal and operational implications of gaining and losing contracts & how to protect your position
The challenges and opportunities which lie ahead.
The revenue situation & how to change & consolidate your financial position.

We have identified 4 key themes which we will run as workshops:

The Comprehensive Spending Review & revenue sources for services: where to look and what to look for
Personalisation & responding to the new Government Agenda
What happens if you win a contract for support or social care? What happens if you lose?
The new Health Agenda: opportunities for sector providers

The event will include an Exhibition for housing support and social care Providers and suppliers of services to the sector. Please contact Emily Wightman to book your stand for only £200-£300 (depending on the size and nature of your organisation).
