Arch Healthcare and the Brighton & Hove Frontline Network are hosting the fifth Homeless Health Conference in Brighton on Wednesday 9th October 2024.

This year's event will take place at The Clarendon Centre, Brighton. The venue has step free access, if however, you have any accessibility requirements that you would like us to be aware of, or have any questions, please contact anja.mclean@nhs.net. (We are able to arrange for BSL signers at the event - please do let us know in advance if this is something you require.)

This free event will provide a valuable opportunity for professional development and improve awareness of the reality that people facing homelessness in Brighton and Hove experience, including commonly related health issues and exploring the types of support available locally.

An update for attendees will be provided nearer the time regarding the full schedule and list of topics and sessions for the day. (We'll also be updating the conference web page here as sessions are confirmed).

In the meantime, we look forward to welcoming you on the 9th October.
