We are honoured that researchers and practitioners have agreed to be part of the Listening, Learning, Leading conference and workshops on 18 and 19 November. They bring a wealth of knowledge about new research that will shape our work in the years to come, as well as practical information about what works to support the lives of children, young people and families.
