Description

On the 26th October 2015 the PB Network held a highly successful conference at the Innovate rooms, Birmingham.

Over 70 leading academics, practitioners, activists and consultants gathered to share their learning in a stimulating range of workshops, break out groups and discussions. We were particularly proud to receive the support of Alex Neil MSP who sent a personal message to the conference.
