The National Early Years Conference 2009

27 November 2009

Crowne Plaza, Glasgow

The National Early Years Conference 2009 will take place on 27 November at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Glasgow.  The conference will run from 10am to 3pm.  The theme of the conference for 2009 will be Health Inequalities in the Early Years.  It will provide a unique opportunity for those interested in Early Years Health Improvement to share experiences, find out how the national strategic direction can support Early Years work at a local level and meet a wide range of people all working to improve outcomes in the Early Years. 

The conference is an opportunity to:

• hear from key players taking forward the Equally Well agenda both nationally and locally;
• explore how Getting it Right for Every Child links with Early Years work locally;
• discuss the factors which impact on the outcomes of our youngest children.

Target Audience:
Practitioners across the NHS, local government and the community and voluntary sector working in Early Years, both professional and volunteers, and those interested in raising the profile of Early Years and supporting parents and young children across Scotland.
