Designed to deliver the ultimate conference experience for all local authorities and their partners who are at the front line of preventing and tackling homelessness. Aimed at front line officers, operational and strategic managers, commissioning managers, heads of service, directors and corporate members; all with a commitment to comply with the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017 by sharing, learning and networking.
