Working in adult social care is rewarding, unique and makes a difference every single day which is why we invite you to get involved with the Department of Health and Social Care's national recruitment campaign for adult social care and join us at this event. You'll learn what the campaign is, how to use the campaign materials and what you, as an employer, can get out of it to help you with your recruitment challenges.

This event is for adult social care providers who support people with learning disabilities and/or autistic people who have or are at risk of offending. You'll get the opportunity to network with colleagues from agencies and other provider organisations in your area. You'll hear about the processes and responsibilities of different agencies across the county, and debate some of the challenges of delivering good care and support to people at risk of entering the Criminal Justice System.

The Professional Leadership Development Programme (PLDP) is a unique leadership development programme for principal social workers (PSWs) in adult services funded through the Office of the Chief Social Worker for Adults in the Department of Health. The PLDP is designed to enable participants to focus on, develop and evaluate the impact of their leadership using a combination of leadership learning and development methods and then applied in practice with a Leadership Impact Project (LIP).

This workshop is for staff and volunteers in adult social care services that support people with a learning disability and/or autism who display, or are at risk of displaying, behaviours which challenge. This training has been developed with people who use services to enhance your skills and knowledge in providing good support to individuals and families.
