24 May, 10.00-16.30. Camden Centre, Bidborough St, London WC1H 9JE

£138.00 – £354

Our first ever conference held to share what works (and what doesn’t) in achieving better outcomes for citizens from public services, bringing together over 200 thought leaders and practitioners from national and local government, health, social enterprises, charities and the private sector.

  • Contribute to a panel discussion chaired by the Guardian’s Public Services Editor, David Brindle
  • Be the first to hear about our ground-breaking report Public service: the state of transformation 
  • Share knowledge and learn together about what really works in public service transformation
  • Explore ideas for the future of public services and how they can be practically applied
  • Participate in a mix of interactive plenary and themed breakout sessions and self-organised world-cafe style discussion groups
  • Make new professional contacts across different sectors
