Join us on Wednesday, 11 December in Leeds for the network's eighth annual conference. The event will be hosted by our network chair, Samantha Allen, chief executive of North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board (ICB). Everyone is welcome.

The conference this year will focus on supporting delegates' personal and professional development and provide space for learning and networking. The programme will look at work underway within the sector and the network to progress gender equality, with a focus on how women and allies can come together to break barriers and drive innovative solutions.

On the day, delegates will participate in an interactive programme including opportunities for networking, learning and development. You will listen to inspirational speakers sharing stories and join lively debates and discussions on the issues currently challenging our sector and beyond, including collaborative solutions for gender equity, workforce innovation, maintaining work-life balance and more.
