This is the week before Harrogate and all the issues seem to be coming together quite well. The concept of swans gliding on the surface but paddling like crazy underwater comes to mind.
The AGM will be pretty pivotal this year as the Governance review is going for approval. This is a real opportunity to modernise the organisation so it is a key point for the future. (if you are not going to be there, send in your proxy)
Grant Shapps, the new Minister is attending so I half expect that we may get some interesting announcements as the week and the emergency budget unfolds.
My Charity of choice, Homeless International will be there in force this year and Ocean Media have been great in there support of them, so a big thank you to Trevor and of course Maggie and your team.
My latest thought is to have collection points at all the conference and exhibition entrances to ask for a £1 donation from every entrant---their chance to make a difference!!
I will try and do some headlines throughout conference week so roll on Sunday!
Howard Farrand
President
