Hospice UK National Conference 2026 programme

The Hospice UK National Conference 2026 takes place at the Liverpool Experience Campus (formerly the ACC) in Liverpool from 16-18 November.

This year's programme explores the breadth and depth of care, support and innovation our sector brings every single day, from funding and sustainability, research, the green agenda, workforce, governance, retail, policy and influencing and the impact of technology on patient experience and care.

Alongside these plenary and parallel sessions, you can join colleagues from across the sector for workshops, creative drop-ins and networking opportunities.
