Theme: Recovery and Innovation
We look forward to welcoming you in person to SAPC's 50th Annual Scientific Meeting.
The dates for the SAPC ASM 2022 have been chosen carefully to avoid a direct clash with the ASME conference (6th-8th July) and WONCA Europe in London (28th June - 1st July).
We are looking forward to welcoming everyone to University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) campus in Preston in 2022. Obviously subject to risk assessment, we are hoping to see everyone in person and there is so much to look forward to.
This will be a special celebratory event, the 50th SAPC conference. In addition to this special occasion and we are delighted that we are collaborating with ASME to organise a joint session between the two conferences on the morning of Wednesday 6th July.
The themes for the conference will focus on recovery and Innovation.
Like life generally, research and education as we know it, has had to take a back seat over the last year but the response to the crisis has highlighted the tremendous resilience and ability to innovate (rather like the virtual conference this year) and we hope to capture examples of these at the conference.
UCLan is unique in not only in having a medical and dental school but also school of ophthalmology, pharmacy, nursing and soon a veterinary school along with a track record of strong links with primary and social care.
We hope to provide a learning event fit for the occasion and opportunity to have some fun!
Donations to charity and helping
At previous ASMs we have encouraged donations to charity and we would like to continue this at ASM 2022. Please consider giving to your favourite charity or local charities/organisations that support those with learning disabilities, health inequalities and the homeless. Homeless Aid operates in the North West. More details of other organisations will be added shortly.
