The Amenity Forum is once again running a series of free Updating Events at venues across the UK and has announced the dates and locations.
This Forum says the series of free events seek to address topical issues of interest and relevance to all involved in the amenity sector and will comprise short presentations by speakers drawn from the Chemicals Regulation Division of HSE, BASIS Registration, the National Sprayer Testing Service, STRI, the various host organisations and from the Amenity Forum itself.
They are timed to occupy half a day, normally mornings, and on dates between February and April 2018.
The series has been given the title of ‘Meeting The Challenge’ and there will be adequate time for questions and discussion. Whilst the events are free, delegates are required to register in advance.
For those who require further information, the Forum asks that interested parties email admin@amenityforum.net.
Locations and dates confirmed are:
- Belfast 8th February

Professor John Moverley, Independent Chairman of the Forum, said ‘’We offer these events as a convenient way for those involved in, or with an interest in, amenity to keep updated on current issues. The locations are spread across the UK and we are especially grateful to member organisations for providing venues and our speakers and supporters which make it all possible.’’
The Forum has also announced the date for its annual conference and exhibition. In 2018 it will be held once again at the Pirelli Stadium, Burton upon Trent, on Tuesday, October 11th. The conference will be entitled ‘Change, Challenge And Opportunity’.
