London Welfare Rights Conference 2025 – Child Poverty Action Group
Garden Court North’s Alexa Thompson will be speaking at Child Poverty Action Group’s (CPAG) London Welfare Rights Conference 2025 at the Leonardo Royal Hotel on 23 October.
CPAG’s annual one-day conference will address ongoing concern around major governmental changes to welfare benefits, particularly for disabled people.
There will be several sessions throughout the day, with Alexa due to speak in a workshop on the pressing matter of disability benefit reforms. Another session of note will be CPAG’s annual personal independence payment (PIP) workshop, in which CPAG’s Carri Swann will cover the latest case law, guidance and Department for Work and Pensions’ policies.
