Suffolk ACRE 2011 AGM and Conference Page

Alongside the annual Suffolk ACRE AGM and Campbell Cup and Probert Awards Ceremonies, this year the day also included a major focus on the governments localism bill and how it will affect our day to day workings. We were able to get a cross section of speakers who were able to represent the various bodies. Below is a list of all the audio and presentations from the speakers, the awards ceremony video, the nominations video and the afternoon question and answer session audio. Please navigate around and choose which interests you.

The event turned out to be hugely successful and the general early feedback was that a similar event next year would be extremely useful.
