Regional Conferences

Our one-day Regional Conferences are held throughout the year.  Presentations are on a diverse range of topics and speakers are from relevant organisations and government bodies.  A small exhibition is held at each event. 
 

Feedback from our London Regional Conference in February was very positive.  "Excellent presenter - focused, clear and succinct" and "Invaluable" were representative of many excellent comments we received on the 'Child Protection' presentation.  "Complex issues presented in a clear concise way with practical advice" was said of the Corporate Manslaughter presentation and the Audit Commission produced a "Relevent, good presentation".
