A Tweeter’s guide to #cclive13: children and families

This year’s Community Care Live: Children and Families conference takes place this Thursday (November 14) at the business design centre in Islington, central London. See the full agenda here. If you’re attending on the day – or want to follow on Twitter – I thought I’d pull together a list of all things hashtag and ‘@’ handles for speakers. So, here we go…

Q: What’s the hashtag for the day?

A: #cclive13 (in previous years we have used #cclive but last year in a nightmareish and highly unlikely coincidence this clashed with some kind of comedy event. It was genuinely the most bizarre mix of social care and comedic texts I’ve ever seen).

Q: Can you let us know the Twitter handles for speakers?

A: Yup.  Below is a list of all of the speakers and (where possible) their Twitter IDs – thanks to @shirleyayres for the suggesting this for our last Community Care Live event. It went down well then so I thought I should do it again this time around!

I’ve also compiled a #cclive13: children and families Twitter list that you can use instead if you want to follow all the speakers on the day.

The list includes all of the speakers and organisations below and our Community Care journalists – who will be tweeting on the day. If you’re attending the event and would like your name added please leave a comment below with your Twitter handle!

If anyone below has a (Twitter?) next to their name it’s because I couldn’t track down a Twitter account for them. Feel free to tweet me @communitycare if I’ve missed you out
