So here it is! We hope this conference will enable leaders to learn from each other\, explore the challenges\, whilst also creating ‘head-space’ to consider new opportunities and indeed real ‘hope’  – in helping to tackling health inequalities\, in the local neighbourhoods and places we all work so hard to create improved opportunity and healthy life expectancy for all. \nThe event intends to build on our well received format\, ensuring there is time to review the fast moving Global and UK landscape together: time for specific updates including data & evaluation\, leadership capability and capacity; LGR/Devolution and an important update from Sport England’s.  We will also have a range of network breakouts and plentiful chances to exchange ideas\, debate and discuss. \nThe event will be based in the Creative Hub WX\, underneath a beautiful creative installation by Luke Jerram: Helios sculpture. We hope across the day and a half event\, we can together showcase the use of creativity and imagination – in tackling the complex problems\, we are all faced with. A chance to really think creatively together about the commonality we have\, and the connection between global climate and health inequalities with our own local systems: helping us as leaders to cultivate a more equitable and fairer future. \nThis event and network remains as a neutral network with no boundaries. We simply ask everyone who attends supports a safe and collaborative space and observes our values. Whether you have attended before or not\, we welcome all system leaders.  The event is free to attend\, but places are limited so register today. \nRegister for your ticket\nCase Studies\nWe are seeking a range of best practice and exemplar work to be shared at the conference\, showing how active wellbeing is being delivered in practice through leadership\, partnership and innovation. \nThere are three ways you might like to lead a session on ‘sharing’ as below: \n\nBest and next practice – This is work around place-based change that is so good that we need to be doing more of it at greater pace and scale.\nChurch of Fail(!) – These are examples\, where you have tried\, but they didn’t entirely work out as planned! But you learnt so much from it\, that you absolutely must share it to benefit others!\nCuriosity Corners – This is a topic\, area of practice\, or view of the future that you want to explore and want to know if anyone else either already knows about it\, or want(s) to explore it with you.\n\nFor more information or to submit a case study\, click the button below. \nCASE STUDY SUBMISSIONS\nOur Facilitators and Speakers\nView the conference speakers\nOur Agenda\nView the conference agenda\nWith thanks to our conference sponsors and partners\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Find out more about our sponsors here URL:https://activewellbeingnetwork.org/event/active-wellbeing-leadership-conference-2026/ LOCATION:Wakefield Exchange\, Union Street\, Wakefield\, WF1 3AD\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Annual Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://activewellbeingnetwork.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Artboard-7-socials.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
