WEAAD 2026 webinar

Join us on Monday 15 June 2026 for our WEAAD webinar: THEN. NOW. NEXT.  

Join Hourglass for our webinar: THEN, NOW, NEXT – 20 Years of WEAAD. In this 60‑minute session, we will explore how understanding of the abuse of older people has changed, drawing on our own frontline experience, policy insight and research trends.

Together, we’ll look at what the sector looked like 20 years ago, what has improved for older people, and what still needs to change to build a safer ageing society. The panel will be made up of staff from Hourglass with experience spanning over 20 years. Followed by a Q&A.
 

This is a free event, spaces are limited.
