Annual AGM & Conference 2026
Tackling Loneliness: From challenge to change
Fri 2nd Oct 2026
9am – 4.30pm
Coram Campus, London, WC1N 1AZ
Members and non-members welcome.
Welcome to this thriving and interesting group of people – the APCSW
This organisation has been in existence for nearly forty years (our big 40th will be celebrated next year!) and has grown and developed to keep pace with the changes that have happened, and are still happening, in this field of work over the years. The whole the committee is run by volunteers who are either working, or have worked, in hospices and palliative care services. We also have a number of people who are interested in research and teaching both social work and palliative care.
You will find more on the aims of the APCSW on the main website pages along with a good deal of information that we hope you will find helpful and useful.

Association Chair
