The Realities of Scottish Social Care for Women
November 22, 2025, 11.00 – 15.00
Glasgow Grosvenor Hotel, Glasgow
Join the SWC for an event focused on women’s lived experience of navigating social care in Scotland. Through personal stories, discussion, and shared insight, we will shine a light on the challenges, gaps, and hopes within Scotland’s social care landscape.
During the event, attendees will hear from a range of speakers who will provide their expertise on various aspects of social care. This will be followed by a Q&A, where attendees will have the opportunity to ask any relevant questions. Following a free buffet lunch, attendees will also be asked to take part in roundtables, fostering a supportive and collaborative environment.
Speaker panel:
Heather Calvo - CEO of Neighbourhood Networks, a Scottish Charity that specialises in developing peer support networks with vulnerable adults.
Shubhanna Hussain - Partnership Development Officer at The Coalition of Carers in Scotland which was established by a group of carers and staff from carer support organisations who wanted to strengthen the voice of carers in Scotland.
This event reflects our commitment to amplifying women’s voices and supporting policies that promote equality, dignity, and safety. This event is only open to women to attend, and a free lunch will be provided.
