At this event, you’ll hear directly from service providers who are driving and delivering meaningful change. Through dynamic presentations and engaged discussions, discover how innovative practices are transforming lives and improving services for individuals and professionals alike.
Event Programme
Audit Scotland will launch their new report on ‘Drug and Alcohol Services’ in Scotland at this event with a keynote address by Ray Buist and Jillian Matthew.
This year’s Showcase also features two thought-provoking sessions on “The Innovation Families Would Like To See – A Learning Journey with Rialto Community Drug Team, Dublin“ led by Families Campaign for Change and people with living experience. These sessions will challenge service providers and commissioners to push the boundaries of innovation in their work.
