The CORC Forum is CORC's flagship event each year, which runs for half a day and with a large amount of attendees. It brings together members and colleagues from the research, mental health and education sector, featuring inspirational speakers, exciting topics and discussions and is the ideal event to expand your knowledge of mental health and wellbeing outcomes for children and young people: based on experience and research.
This year the CORC Forum takes places on Thursday 21 November 2024.
A detailed agenda is in development and you will able to book your place(s) soon. For now, please save the date.
Attendance is free to CORC members, with a fee for non-members. Many of you attend each year, and we of course welcome anyone who hasn’t been before too. This will be an online event, making it easily accessible to those across the UK and in other countries, with opportunity for networking during the event.
[Reflections from last year’s forum can be found here].
If there is anything you’d like to share or see at the event, please get in touch and we can consider this within our plan.
Meanwhile, we are delighted to confirm that our keynote speaker this year will be Dr Georgia Pavlopoulou. Georgia is Strategic Co-Lead and Programme Director, Anna Freud and University College London.
Dr Georgia Pavlopoulou bio:
Georgia is a neurodivergent academic who has a PhD in Developmental Psychology and Mental Health, is the Founder of the University College London (UCL) Group in Research in Relationships and an Associate Professor at UCL. She is the Co-Strategic Lead and Programme Director of National Autism Trainer Programme at Anna Freud, commissioned by NHS England, which aims to improve service delivery across inpatient, community and youth justice mental health services.
She has 20 years’ experience working with autistic people and their family members and has felt the benefits of involving them at the heart of clinical and educational decision making.

Georgia has also led national and international short courses for mental health practitioners working in educational and NHS systems with young people with atypical development.
She is passionate about working with marginalised groups, service users, scholar activists and mental health services to facilitate service transformation and advance mental health practice through better cross-agency collaboration, translational research and service user participation.
