7th Annual Conference 2023
Organisational Neglect – where is the line?
This year we considered the concept of Organisational Neglect.
Organisational Neglect (sometimes referred to as institutional abuse) is neglect and poor care practice within an institution or specific care setting such as a hospital or hostels. This can range from a one-off incident to on-going ill-treatment.
Although we know that individual staff in inclusion health services battle every day to get the best service for their clients, we also know that the barriers to providing best care are immense, and that care and support failures are commonplace.
The conference included fantastic keynote speakers, workshops and a focus group sessions, where we asked participants to reflect and consider ‘Where is the line?’
Conference Speakers
We were excited this year to offer delegates a fantastic line up of engaging speakers, workshop/focus group leads and panel members from a range of professions across the homelessness and health sector. Each shared their own perspectives and experiences with delegates, sparking discussion and debate throughout the day.

News
Thankyou for this. If a windowless room with the toilet next to your bed, or the street is not where you would want your Nanna discharged from hospital to, it’s not good enough for people experiencing homelessness either
Co-director Matt was on @itvnews tonight exclusively sharing findings from this year's Dying Homeless Project investigation with @krisjepson
We are heartbroken to share an incredibly grim situation across the UK.
