The Infection Prevention Society West Midlands Branch invites you to join us for the annual conference, which is to be held for a third year in the Molineux Stadium, Wolverhampton, on Wednesday 6th July 2022 following a 2 year break due to the pandemic.

The programme for 2022 will include:

• Human Factors - scientific discipline or common sense?
