Conference 2021

This year we celebrated ALARM's first-ever virtual Conference.

For the first time in 30 years we hosted a five-day virtual annual Conference the whole week of 21-25 June. Beaming into your homes was an array of excellence, celebrating the balancing act we have all been performing since spring 2020. Whether it’s the extra work pressures of balancing pandemic imperatives with business as usual, or merely maintaining a work/life balance, the challenges of COVID-19 have tested personal and organisational agility and creativity, resourcefulness and resilience. 

Conference 2021 reflected the breadth of issues and responses that have emerged in the risk management of public services in the UK. Sponsors and practitioners rehearsed existing themes with new solutions as well as new topics and different conundrums with best practice guidance.

This year’s Conference may have been online but what didn’t change was the quality, relevant and targeted support for all ALARM members, plus a valuable opportunity for virtual networking, sharing and learning.

This new style Conference was unique, with many opportunities for learning, continuing professional development, expert insight, live participation, and networking with members and sponsors. It was fun too, with a daily quiz and two daily wellbeing sessions to de-stress.
