This event was held in Birmingham, not long before the COVID-19 pandemic swept the globe. The theme of the event was “Why language matters”. The event was attended by approximately 300 delegates from around the NHS and overseas. The excellent speakers, brilliant artwork and surprise operatic performance at lunchtime all added to create a very positive vibe for the day. Posters from the event can be seen on the LfE posters page. Twitter hashtag for the day: #lfe3
