About the conference


Children's palliative care is at a pivotal moment. As demand continues to grow in both volume and complexity against a backdrop of workforce challenges, funding uncertainty and changing healthcare priorities, a shared vision for the future has never been more important.
That’s why Building Tomorrow Together is more than a conference. It’s an unparalleled opportunity for the sector to come together to shape its very future.
With a host of leading speakers, thought-provoking sessions and interactive workshops in our brand-new Innovation Theatre, you’ll gain fresh perspectives, practical insights and inspiring conversations to help inform and strengthen our collective impact and drive meaningful change for the children and families you support.
Join us as we build tomorrow, together.
