Wednesday 4 – Thursday 5 November, 2026
This very special conference will see us reflect on the progress that has been made to prevent and respond to stalking in the 10 years that have passed since Alice was murdered by her stalker.
We have an incredible line-up of speakers, true industry experts and academics, who will share their latest research and best practice guidance from right across the varying sectors that must continue to improve in the fight against stalking.
This year, on the first evening of our conference, we will also be hosting a legacy ball to celebrate the legacy that Alice has left behind.
Scenes from the 2025 conference
The annual two-day Alice Ruggles Trust conferences have been described as “the place to be” for those working in the stalking sector, bringing together criminal justice, health service and third sector professionals with academic criminologists and psychologists.
The 2026 conference will be held, as last year, at the Trent Conference Centre in Nottingham and as always will feature a range of excellent talks, workshops, and panels.
This year we have three very special keynote speakers lined up:
Professor Troy McEwan from Swinburne University in Melbourne, who this year will be joining us in person
Professor Jane Monckton-Smith from the University of Gloucestershire
and Richard Wright KC, the barrister who has been leading the government’s independent review on stalking legislation
More information will follow here shortly.
