We are delighted to host Women, Children & Families celebration and learning event named Growing Together - Foundations of Early Years Care 2024.

Join us to reflect together on NHS Tayside's early years services with an opportunity to hear from key note speakers, time for our wellbeing and hearing from members of the team on key achievements from the past year.

The theme for 2024 is relational based care and kindness and will focus on the following areas: 

  • Topics requested following on from 2023 event
