News AfPP annual conference 2026 launches with new venue
The AfPP Annual National Conference 2026 takes place on 7-8 August and returns bigger, better, and more accessible than ever before. This year, AfPP will welcome delegates to an exciting new venue, the stunning Wyboston Lakes Resort, bringing a fresh energy and enhanced experience to AfPP’s flagship event.
Nestled in beautiful surroundings, Wyboston
Lakes Resort offers a state-of-the-art conference environment, with modern facilities, comfortable accommodation, and thoughtfully designed spaces for learning, networking, relaxation, and wellbeing. This upgrade reflects AfPP’s ongoing commitment to delivering an exceptional delegate experience from start to finish. “Moving to Wyboston Lakes Resort allows us to
elevate the entire conference experience,” says Vicky Wong, AfPP Events Lead. Vicky adds: “The venue gives us the space,
flexibility, and facilities to support high-quality education, meaningful networking, and delegate wellbeing, all in one place. We’re excited to welcome the perioperative community to this fantastic new setting.” Across two inspiring days, delegates will benefit
from a high-quality, evidence-based educational programme, featuring keynote speakers, expert-led workshops, and interactive sessions designed to support real-world perioperative practice. Sessions are carefully curated to provide practical skills, up-to-date knowledge, and insights that can be applied immediately to enhance patient care and team working. The conference also features a busy
exhibition area, showcasing the latest innovations, products, and services supporting perioperative practice, alongside AfPP’s much-loved evening networking and celebration event, offering the perfect opportunity to connect with colleagues in a relaxed and enjoyable setting. Whether attending for one day or both, the AfPP Annual National Conference offers an enhanced learning environment that combines professional development, peer connection, and wellbeing - all within a resort designed to inspire. Flexible delegate packages will allow delegates
to attend the full two-day conference or join AfPP for a single day, enabling them to tailor their experience around their role, schedule, and learning priorities. AfPP is making attendance even more
accessible by introducing a three-installment payment plan. This option allows delegates to spread the cost, helping to manage budgets while still securing access to high-quality education and invaluable networking opportunities. This year’s conference is built around five key themes, offering a carefully balanced programme of innovation, hands-on learning, leadership development, and wellbeing support: Driving Change - Explore new technologies,
innovations, and policy developments, with sessions supporting both professional growth and personal development. Wellbeing Studio - Dedicated sessions focused on mental health, resilience, self-care, and sustaining wellbeing in demanding perioperative environments. Clinical Education - Gain the latest insights into
best practice, patient safety, human factors, and emerging research impacting perioperative care. Culture & Workforce Workshops - Develop confidence in leadership, communication, conflict management, and building positive, inclusive workplace cultures. Skills Lab - Hands-on, practical workshops designed to refine essential perioperative techniques and enhance clinical confidence. The full agenda will be released soon, with further details on speakers, session topics, and learning outcomes. Keep checking the conference website for
