The National Multiple Disadvantage Summit 2026

November 12, 2025

 

We’re delighted to be able to announce details for next year’s National Multiple Disadvantage Summit. It will take place on 12 May 2026 at the Birmingham Conference and Events Centre, Birmingham City Centre, with the title: “Learning Curves: the path to systems change.

This year, we’ll be exploring why local areas and national policymakers need to be open to continuous, iterative learning, when we create systems change. With such complex, and long-term work we must have clear processes in place to reflect, adapt to new factors, and take action based on what we have learnt.

Over the next few months, we’ll be planning workshops and keynote speakers for the day, so we can bring you a wide range of perspectives and thoughts, and make the day full of interesting connections and insights – if you have ideas of anything you’d particularly like us to explore, please get in touch with us!

We will email the MEAM Approach network shortly about allocated tickets.

Early bird tickets are on sale between now and the end of 2025, for the bargain price of £150.
