Feedback on another successful WMCA Conference

We hosted our first Registered Managers, Deputies and Seniors CPD Conference of 2025 on 23 ^rd January, at the Bescot Stadium in Walsall.

This time we focused on the CQC Quality Statement ‘ Is your Care Service Effective ?’

It was an educational and informative day, with approx. 110 care providers attending and a number of providers on a waiting list!

All those who attended said it had been a very useful and worthwhile event.
