ASCNUK25
ASCNUK25 took place from the 12th to 14th October 2025, bringing together over 500 attendees, 20 industry partners and 10 charities under the theme Developing Trends – Enhancing the Future of Stoma Care.
The three-day event united nurses and industry professionals from a wide range of organisations and disciplinary backgrounds, all focused on advancing stoma care. Delegates took part in a rich scientific and educational programme that featured keynote speakers, insightful presentations and discussions designed to enhance the practice of those involved in delivering stoma healthcare.
As the largest Specialist Stoma Care Nurse (SCN) event in the UK, ASCNUK25 once again demonstrated the strength and value of this community. The atmosphere of collaboration and shared purpose made the conference a truly standout occasion.
Attendees explored developing trends and practical insights to enhance their daily practice, discovered cutting-edge products and innovations in stoma care, and engaged with leading stoma-related charities to learn more about their support for patients and professionals. The event also provided a wealth of networking opportunities, enabling SCNs, industry experts and peers to build meaningful connections.
Thought-provoking posters showcased a range of research, projects and creative solutions, while special guests Matt Forde and Breege O’Neill shared unique insights and experiences that inspired and informed everyone present.
