ANNUAL NIACE & NIMHE CONFERENCE
Adult Education and Mental Health:
Supporting social inclusion through adult learning
Monday 26 June 2006, Nottingham
This annual conference organised jointly by NIACE, the National Institute of Mental Health in England (NIMHE) and the national Learning and Skills Council (LSC) will showcase examples of good practice in promoting adult learning for people with mental health difficulties. It will launch two new resources, distributed free of charge to delegates, that capture the learner/service user voice and highlight why adult learning has such an important role to play in promoting social inclusion and recovery. Delegates are offered a choice of seven workshops.
The conference will also offer participants the opportunity to receive the draft action plan suggesting improvements that the sector can take forward in response to the national LSC's proposals of May 2006: "Proposals to Improve Services to people with Mental Health Difficulties".
This is an important conference which offers participants the opportunity to:
· Find out about the current policy developments driving this agenda
· Hear about some of the positive practice in supporting adults with mental health difficulties to access learning
· Be involved in formulating the action plan to improve services for people with mental health difficulties.
· Discuss how we can take this agenda forward.
Arrival and Registration is at 09.45; the conference ends at 4.00pm
