LWDP Conference

On the 6th February, the Lancashire Workforce Development Partnership, hosted a conference entitled “Dignity in Care – It’s how we care that matters”.

The day was a resounding success with over 100 care staff from across Lancashire receiving inspirational and passionate addresses from all of our guest speakers which included;

Amanda Waring & Marc Wood – Compassion, Dignity and Respect

Margaret Flynn – Why Safeguarding/Adult Protection Matters

Jan Burns – Dignity in the Heart, Mind and Actions – is it?

The day also included interactive and thought provoking workshops;

Colin Newton and Derek Wilson – The Dimensions of Dignity

Andy Bradley – Closing the Compassion Gap.

The whole day was captured in a graphic illustration.

A heart felt thank you from the LWDP team to all who were involved in making this Dignity Day so fantastic. We know from the feedback that this Dignity Conference touched many people’s hearts and we are hopeful that this day will have a positive impact for the many people who are receiving social care within Lancashire.
