WHAT PREVIOUS DELEGATES SAID This was a really great relevant conference I don t think I have been to a conference before where everything was useful and relevant. Fantastic event, interesting mix of speakers and topics. Great tone, good time for networking and ideas sharing. Really enjoyed the conference, really well organised, interesting and varied speakers This is my first time at the NWG Conference and it has been amazing. I have learnt so much. I feel energised, inspired and determined. The number of seminars and choice of topics has been fantastic. The speakers were excellent. The food, venue and accommodation was a high standard. I will be back. Thank you! Excellent and stimulating as always!
WHAT PREVIOUS DELEGATES SAID Amazing 2 day conference - so organised, efficient and professional. Great variety of workshops. Lovely evening to celebrate work and successes which was so important. Thank you for this amazing opportunity. Lorin was absolutely amazing and really sums up the reason we were all sitting in the room. Her story speaks volumes and I m sure would be beneficial for others to hear Thanks to all at NWG. I have worked with young people at risk of CSE and involved in CSE for 21 years, I am inspired every time I meet up with Practitioners across the country via NWG, keep up the good work and I will remain committed to raising awareness of CSE and professionally challenging my peers, superiors across the agencies. I am loyal to one side - that of the young person. Thanks again.
