The meeting is scheduled to take place between 11.30am and 5.30pm and will include an opening speech by David Miliband, Secretary of State, Defra and also a keynote speech by Ben Bradshaw, Minister of State, Defra.
Further information and details on how to register will be sent out to you in due course but in the meantime please make a note of this date in your diary. Spaces are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis once the registration communication has been sent out.
Please note places will be limited to two spaces per organisation in the first instance. Allocation of places from a reserve list will take place after registration has closed at 5.00pm on Friday 2nd March. Unfortunately if you have not been allocated a place then we will not be able to admit you to the event.
