Seminar Programme

Due to the heightened risk of Coronavirus (COVID-19) with all the issues and restrictions that this current way of living entails we are postponing The Social Work Show on 11 May. This regular social work event has brought together social workers from across the UK for 15 years but as we are all aware we cannot proceed at the moment. The Hilton Deansgate has now shut for the foreseeable future and we are working with their events team to bring you a new date for the show which will be held later on this year.

Our commitment to serve and support the social work sector and our dedication to the well-being of those who need the services of our community means that we will concentrate on bringing you the lively, friendly, vibrant event we know it to be once we can safely do so.

If you have registered to attend the event we will keep you up to date with the new date and your current registration will still be valid for the postponed event. In the intervening period we will also keep you informed of all our events and products.

We hope you all stay well and healthy and we look forward to seeing you all soon.

About the seminar programme

The event includes a packed seminar programme, given by top speakers and leading experts within the sector, and can be used as part of your CPD hours. The programme will have seminars for visitors at all levels of their career and you are welcome to attend the event at any time throughout the day.

The conference is free for all pre-registered visitors and all social workers and allied health professionals are welcome. There will be four seminar rooms running a series of workshops and films as well as the popular Professional Development Hub which will be a part of the exhibition offering career advice. This is your opportunity to discuss your practice issues and share knowledge with colleagues.

Work is already underway for the seminar programme for The Social Work Show, 2020. If you would like to suggest a topic to be covered or submit an application to deliver a seminar yourself, please contact Rik Clarke on 01892 784804 or email rik@compassjobsfair.com.
