Social Care Ireland’s National Conference “Social Care 2012 Taking Stock” will be held on the 28th and 29th March 2012 at the Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel, Kilkenny.
Social care in Ireland faces into an uncertain future and the conference convenors believe that there is no better time to “take stock.” The focus of the conference will be promoted by the three keynote speakers. The first of these is Sister Stan Kennedy who will address the theme, “Justice for all our Children.” Secondly, Keith White will reflect on “Returning the Gaze - Learning from History,”and in the final keynote address Damien Courtney considers “The Development of Social Care Education and Training in Ireland.”
Other speakers include Dave Williams, Jim Cantwell, Majella Mulkeen, Lavinia McLean of Cottage Home, , Helen Buggle, Aisling Byrne, Leo Gordon, Maria Kenneally, Emmet Tuite, Moira Jenkins, Deirdre Bonar, Residential managers from Fresh Start, Dr. John Digney, Noelle Fitzgerald, Cian Aherne, Andy Sheppard, Judy Doyle, Pat McGarty, David Power, Dr.Liam Leonard, Dr. Paula Kenny, Aoife Killeen, Mark Taylor, Margaret Gilmore, Dorothy Walsh, Brenda Kneafsey, Pat Bergin and Marie Claire O’Brien.
The conference always offers an opportunity for meeting and sharing with people from the three different professions represented by Social Care Ireland - practitioners, educators and managers - and this has become a welcome and postive feature of recent conferences. The 2012 conference promises to be no different.
