A Date for your Diary....

On 4th September, CPAG are holing their Welfare Rights Conference at the University of Manchester Innovation Centre. The day's agenda looks like this:

09.15 - 10.00 Arrival, registration, coffee and exhibition stand viewing
10:00 – 11.15 Host welcome and keynote speakers (tbc)
11.15 – 11.30 Refreshment break and viewing of exhibition stands
11.30 – 12.45 Workshops – morning session
12.45 – 13.30 Lunch and viewing of exhibition stands
13.30 – 14.45 Workshops – afternoon session
14.45 – 15.00 Refreshment break and viewing of exhibition stands
15.00-16.00 Panel discussion and Q&A

and with workshops available on 'Disputing benefit decisions: ‘mandatory reconsideration’', 'Localised Welfare, Personal Independence Payment', 'The past presence, the future: changes to residence and presence tests', and 'Sanction Busting!', it looks to be a really interesting day.

It's not a cheap one, but they do have an early bird rate of £110 for voluntary organisations if you book before 1st July.
