Demos and Vertex are proud to present this event at the Conservative Party Conference on the future of social care systems, and how to create an outcome-based social care model. We are delighted to be joined by:

Chris Skidmore MP, Member of Parliament for Kingswood and Member of the Health Select Committee

Kieron Brennan, Head of Business Development for the Public Sector, Vertex

Michelle Mitchell, Charity Director, Age UK

Dame Denise Platt, Chairperson, the Commission for Social Care Inspection

Anushka Asthana, Policy Editor, The Guardian (Chair)

The discussion for this Demos and Vertex event stems from the recognition that a new social care system must take an outcomes based approach. This event will focus on challenges facing both the government and the care sector in shifting the focus towards what people want rather than through which services it is achieved.
