We’re pleased to announce that registration is now open for our NHS VCHA Annual National Conference 2025, taking place on Wednesday 17 September, from 10am to 4pm, at The Birmingham Conference & Events Centre (BCEC).

This year’s conference brings together colleagues from across the NHS, independent care sector, hospices, and partner organisations to celebrate our shared progress and impact, as well as to highlight best practices in delivering care to our Armed Forces community. 

We’re looking forward to a dynamic day of networking, innovation, and collaboration, with keynote speakers, interactive sessions, and inspiring stories from across the sector. 

While we’re offering an online attendance option, we strongly encourage joining us in person to make the most of the experience and connect face-to-face. 

Seats are limited for the physical attendance, so we encourage early registration to secure your place.  

A special discounted rate is available for accommodation during your stay, so be sure to book early to take advantage of this offer.  

If you require assistance or have accessibility needs while filling out the form, please let us know.
