We warmly invite you to join us at the 35th Annual National Acute Pain Symposium on 18-19 September 2025, at Warwick Conferences. With a great educational programme, range of options for delegate registration, opportunities to engage with the trade and enjoy the now legendary NAPS Social evening and Awards, NAPS is an unmissable event for those who work in Acute Pain and Pain Management. To mark the 35th Anniversary of NAPS, our Social Evening this year will also be extra special.
