This one-day conference will include speakers, interactive workshops, market stalls offering guidance, advice and support, and the opportunity to network with colleagues across health, local authorities, the third sector and independent sector.

For providers, it will demonstrate ways for you to show how you provide added social value when tendering for services, and how you can be involved in providing added social value to local communities without spending additional resources.

The event is chaired by Mike Farrar, Chief Executive of NHS NW and the Social Value Project Steering Board chair, and Bob Ricketts, Director of System Management and New Enterprise at the Department of Health.
