Conference Theme

The title of our 2023 conference is Intersectionality+, and we will be considering how best the ambulance service can meet the needs of people with multiple protected characteristics as well demystifying the LGBTTQQIAAP acronym. If all that sounds ambitious we will also look at the role of allies in supporting the development of services and creating supporting environments for staff. It is for that reason we are looking for each Ambulance Trust to identify delegates from three specific groups to attend the conference. These are:

  • LGBT+ staff
  • People of influence
  • Aspiring allies

The first day of the conference will take the form of a traditional conference with keynote speakers and breakout workshops. The second day aims to be more informal and will provide a wide range of different learning experiences to engage with. Each delegate will be able to design their own learning experience from the options available. We are also delighted to announce the National Ambulance BME Forum and National Ambulance Disability Network will be taking part in the event to broaden the scope of the subject matter. As with all our previous events, you can expect some surprises along the way too.

Dates

15 and 16 June 2023

Venue

We will be returning to the fantastic Brooks Building at Manchester Metropolitan University for this conference.
