Events

Our vision is ‘Sharing best evidence, improving practice’ to this end we run a series of events throughout the year to work towards this. All events are centred around evidence-based research, and our speakers are some of the leading lights in the field. ACAMH is a charity, and we receive no government funding, nor do we ask for donations. We try to keep our costs as low as possible, and provide many events completely free.

All bookings all processed online, for those events where there is a charge you can pay by debit/credit card. If you are having difficulty signing up to an event do please email events@acamh.org or call +44 (0)20 7403 7458.
