NCASC 2026: Foundations’ evening reception

November 12, 2026
| 5:30 pm
| Suite 1, Leonardo Hotel Liverpool

Join us to reconnect with colleagues and peers after a busy day, hear about the progress of our Evidence into Practice programme and recent Practice Guides, and discuss how we can continue to strengthen the use of evidence in local services.

Thursday 12 November | 17:30-19:30 
Suite 1, Leonardo Hotel Liverpool, L3 4BX

Last year, we launched Evidence into Practice, announcing the first nine Partner Places we would be working with to embed evidence into local services. A year on, this is an opportunity to reflect on the progress that we’ve made, share key learnings, and hear from our Partner Places about their experiences of embedding evidence use in their local area. You’ll also hear more about recently published Practice Guides, and how they can support local leaders to strengthen services for children and families.

Please register your interest using the button below. Places may be limited, so we encourage you to respond at your earliest convenience.
