The West Midlands Care Association is currently celebrating its 20th anniversary as being the voice of the care industry. The Association offers the crucial support care providers require to deliver sustainable excellence within community, nursing, special needs and residential home settings.
As well as several member benefits, the Association run a number of events and training for our members and the wider care industry throughout the year. We also run large-scale CPD conferences, aimed at Care Homes and Domicilicary Care providers. They are a great opportunity to network with other providers and meet representatives from local authorities, health and suppliers from across the West Midlands as well as keeping up to date with the latest CQC updates and legislation regarding social care.
Our next CPD Conference will take place on 25th January – find out more here.
But don’t take our word for it, read below about the benefits our members enjoy by regularly attending our events.
Bal Bisla, Registered Manager, Angel Care Homes Limited
I cannot express enough gratitude for the invaluable support and guidance we've received from the West Midlands Care Association. As a member benefiting from their meetings, conferences, and Registered Managers Network, we have been able to keep abreast of the latest developments in the care sector.
Moreover, the Registered Managers Network has been a lifeline for us. These meetings have provided a platform where we've not only learned from experts but have also connected with other managers and shared knowledge, experience, best practices, that have directly impacted our day-to-day operations. The platform has been a safe space for us to discuss challenges, share solutions, and collectively strive for excellence in care provision.
West Midlands Care Association’s commitment to supporting and empowering care providers is commendable and we cannot thank them enough for their unwavering support.

Melanie Dawson, Registered Home Manager, The Lawns Care Home (Worcester)
I have been a member of Skills for Care for 5 years and the meetings and events they support alongside the WMCA are invaluable to ensure you can get updates on the latest happenings in social care.
Access to someone to provide answers when your stumped, point you in the direction of available funded training and innovation in the care sector.
The events are a great way to network – the role of managers is a very solitary one and it is great to meet others where you can share ideas and solutions.
