Southampton has made a name for itself in Emotional Literacy (EL) ever since it became a unitary authority in 1997. Part of the celebration of this is our annual Emotional Literacy conference, held since 2006 and open to all people with an interest in EL, whether they work inside the city or beyond it.

Each year, conference speakers and workshops are chosen around a theme, recent examples include Forgiveness (2015), Like me - Identity and Self Esteem (2016), Mental Health and Wellbeing - Emotional Literacy 20 years on (2017) and Better Belonging - Finding our place in the Modern World (2018).

The theme for the 2019 Conference will be Relationships - Everybody's Business.
