Bridging the Social Justice Gap

Faced with both the credit crunch and a funding squeeze, the hard-won social progress of recent years is under threat.

We need to learn how to work much smarter if we want the UK to become more fair and less divided in the future.

Every pound spent will need to work at least twice as hard in five years time.

If you work in a Local Authority or a Primary Care Trust, if you are a local funder or a local service provider, come to this unique forum of people working at the sharp end and share your practical insights.

Event themes include:

What’s next for self-directed support? How can we invest in prevention rather than cure? What are the best new ways of evidencing impact? How can private capital be put at the service of social justice?

Confirmed speakers include:

Rt Hon Phil Hope, Minister for Third Sector; Simon Duffy, CEO of In Control; Professor Tim Crabbe, Chair of Substance; Toby Eccles, Social Finance Ltd; Matthew Pike, Executive Director of Novas Scarman Group
