We’re returning to the IPS Yorkshire Annual Conference under the theme ‘Future Focus - “Time” to Care’ for 2022.

So we’ve come to the end of another terrific IPS Annual Conference today - and what an event it's been! Great catching up with familiar faces and meeting many more new ones too.
We've thoroughly enjoyed our time here in Liverpool. Fearless in the face of the jam-packed 3-day conference, with a host of excellent speakers and presenters, the delegates led the way in showing us how to 'work hard, play hard'… From dance floor Revolucion!, to the hilarious Dr (should that be future “Minister”?) Phil Hammond; 'The Great Debate', to the glitz and glam of the Gala Dinner and deserving recipients of the awards ceremony - it has been a blast!
The opportunity to take part in the 'Pitch in Five' was definitely one of the highlights for the team here at MEG. And we thank all of you who supported us on the day!
