We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming RASASC North Wales Conference 2026 – “Reducing Offending: Strengthening Safeguarding in North Wales.”

This important event follows the publication of the recent Child Practice Review (LINK HERE) into the offending of former headteacher Neil Foden. The conference will provide an opportunity to reflect, learn, and share best practice across agencies — ensuring that lessons learned and recommendations are shared and are embedded across North Wales.

This conference is to share learning, understanding, and strengthening safeguarding practice across education, social care, health, justice, and community sectors.
