Dear Colleagues
A final call for expressions of interest to host the 2010-2011 SPA Annual
Conferences
The Social Policy Association is seeking to appoint an institution or group
to organise and run the SPA Annual Conferences in June or July 2010 and
2011. Our Annual Conferences generally attract 250-350 delegates from
within the UK and overseas. We provide up-front financial support and our
conference planning experience is readily available with ongoing support
and guidance from the SPA Conference Group.
Expressions of interest should be sent to Tess Ridge (via email or at the
address below) by February 29th 2008. At this stage all that is required
is a statement of interest in hosting the conference, no further details
are necessary. Organisations will then receive a letter asking for more
detailed information including: detailed costings and supplementary
information on the organisation, location and conference facilities. The
deadline for detailed applications will be April 30th 2008. The final
decision will be announced at the 2008 annual conference at the University
of Edinburgh.
