The recently established National Collaboration for Integrated Care and Support sets out a shared ambition to make joined-up and coordinated health and care the norm by 2018, with pioneer projects in every part of the country by 2015. An ageing population, increases in the number of people with multiple long-term conditions and unprecedented financial pressures combine to require a step change and whole system approach to developing person-centred, coordinated care at a local level.

Capita Conferences' Integrating Health, Care and Support Conference has been designed for you to look at making the vision for integrated care a reality and to share experiences, successes and failures. With case study examples of integration from around the country, this timely event will explore all of the key issues, including:

- Opportunities for integration in the reformed NHS landscape, including responsibilities for Clinical Commissioning Groups and Health and Wellbeing Boards
- Co-ordinating care around the needs of the patient and local populations
- Overcoming the challenges of establishing shared leadership, merging cultures and systems
- Innovative approaches to delivering integrated care and support services for older people and people with long term conditions

You will learn from leading examples of integrated care, helping you to transform the way care is provided in your area, ensuring people with complex needs live healthy, fulfilling and independent lives.
