The Early Years Inspiration Exchange

Saturday 3rd October – 9.30am – 1pm

Coventry Building Society Arena

This gathering brings together a small number or nurseries form across the UK who ar reimaging what early childhood can be for children, families, and educators. Through keynote talks, shared practice, visual provocations, and honest conversation, the event offers a glimpse into approaches rooted in creativity, community, play, nature, relationships and lived values.

Rather than presenting a single “right way” , the day invites reflection, curiosity and inspiration, encouraging educators to take away ideas that genuinely resonate with their own settings and practice.

A thoughtful and hopeful coming together for those who believe early years can be both richly human and transformational.

Hosted by Alice Sharp and Marie Richardson
