After the success of last year's AGM the NEC have decided to return to the County Hotel in Walsall for the 2010 Annual Conference.
This is where we debate, decide & deliver policy on how we run this organisation known as "PLUS". Be a part of it and book your place as a delegate and represent your Group.
Don't worry if you aren't a delegate as you are welcome to attend as an observer and still get fully involved in the lively debate that takes place
To view the venue please click on www.countyhotelwalsall.co.uk
If debating isn't your thing then why not join us after the Conference for the Evening Dinner Dance followed by a Masquerade Ball and Entertainment (details to follow).
During the dinner we will also present the Awards and then it will be non-stop partying until midnight.
Have a look at the attached documents to view the packages available. There is something for everyone from the weekend package right down to just attending the disco in the evening. This will be an event not to be missed so get your booking in early.
