Every Voice, Every Choice: Ann Craft Trust Safeguarding Adults Conference 2026

Every Voice. Every Choice.

By prioritising choice, safeguarding can become more preventative, build trust, and empower individuals.

Our focus this year is on how co-production is central to safeguarding adults.

We’ll explore how a collaborative approach aligns closely with key principals of the Care Act 2014, such as empowerment and prevention.

A key theme is Making Safeguarding Personal, which prioritises the outcomes for the individuals. It’s all about giving people a voice, and making it their choice as to what happens, and what makes them feel safe.

The conference will contribute to continued professional development for professionals and volunteers working with adults across a range of sectors.

We will publish the full programme in the coming months.
