The 2012 Social Care Ireland annual conference will be taking place on the 28th and 29th March in the Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel in Kilkenny. This year's conference will focus on the theme of 'Taking Stock'. 

We are also offering an early bird offer of €198 single occupancy or €168 per person sharing for bookings made before midday on the 1st March. Any bookings after this point will be charged at full price.

The theme of the 2012 conference could not be more appropriate. For reasons we are all aware of, we face into an uncertain future and never was there a better time to “take stock.” Three excellent keynote speakers, a wide and varied range of individual presentations and relevant discussion groups feed in to the conference theme. The opportunity for meeting and sharing with people from the three different professions represented by Social Care Ireland - practitioners, educators and managers - has become a very positive and welcome feature of recent conferences. The 2012 conference promises to be no different. You can see all of the details of the conference in the programme, available here.

All bookings that contain hotel rooms must be booked before midday on the 23rd March - these tickets will not be available after this date. A full refund is available up until 48 hours before the beginning of the conference (9am Monday the 26th March 2012). After this point no refund is available.
