research in practice for adults delivers a number of annual events to staff from Partner agencies.
Places at annual events are by invitation from research in practice for adults rather than through Link Officer nomination. This is due to the nature of annual events which have a specific focus geared towards the chosen audience (e.g. Link Officers or Directors). If the invited person is unable to attend then they may be asked to delegate their position to a colleague to ensure that the Partner agency is represented.
Programmes for annual events will be added as they become available. After the event presentations and resources from the event will be available here for download and distribution across Partner agencies.

3 and 4 February 2010
Woodland Grange, Leamington Spa
JOINT EVENT WITH RESEARCH IN PRACTICE
This year's seminar explored the research evidence base for good safeguarding practice. It also addressed how we understand risk in general and the role that care services, communities and society as a whole play in protecting its most vulnerable members. We looked at service users' stories of being a part of the safeguarding process and councillors shared their experience of involvement in the safeguarding process in their local authorities.
