Celebrating 5 years of Together4Change: In-person Meeting and Celebration
Join us for a day of celebrations marking five fantastic years of ARC England's Together4Change group. Together4Change is a place where people who draw on the support of our members can come together and talk about things that matter.
📆 Thursday 15th October 2026
🕑 Time: 10am - 3.30pm (all welcome from 9am for tea and coffee)
🏫 Venue: Moot Hall, Great Holm, Milton Keynes, MK8 9HP (MacIntyre)
🎟️ Tickets are FREE - open to ARC England members and anyone supported by an ARC England member.
Tickets are limited to five per organisation to start with. We may be able to increase this nearer the time.
Sponsors: Huge thanks to our sponsors; your support is helping to keep tickets free and to offer travel bursaries to help with the cost of getting to the event.
We need more sponsors! If your organisation can help, please email liz.collins@arcuk.org.uk
Your teams support people to achieve outcomes that are meaningful to them every day: a first bus journey alone, a hard week worked through, a new friendship.
Motion helps make more of them happen. We help care providers deliver activities built around each person's own goals, then capture what changed and turn it into personalised updates for everyone in their circle of support. Support workers spend less time on paperwork. A Circle of Support see real progress. Providers grow because the support they give is finally seen.
Built with providers, for the people they support.
Just Checking uses smart sensing technology to help care professionals deliver greater independence and safer person-led support
The event venue has been kindly provided by ARC England member MacIntyre.
