This year’s theme is about the 70th anniversary of the NHS and ‘Looking Forward into the Future’
Aneurin Bevan said about being reactionary: its like a man walking backwards with his face to the future. NAMDET believes that our unique association has the ability to both react and predict what the future may bring, to plan and adapt and share and learn in equal measure. Our conference will focus on what we have achieved so far, what our plans look like ‘going forward’ and what you can do to help.
We already have a range of speakers booked from Industry, NHS and experts from training initiatives and charities that we’ve collaborated with and are also looking forward to develop further links in 2018 and beyond. This year is also NAMDET’s 7th anniversary and we also will be sharing our vision for the future and how our plans and work-streams have developed and how they are taking shape.
