The Annual Conference Exhibition of the Amenity Forum is to be held on Thursday, October 16th 2014 at Leicester City Football Clubs King Power Stadium, Filbert Way, Leicester, LE2 7FL.
There will be an excellent range of speakers and an exhibition area to interest everyone with an involvement in the amenity sector.
There are many challenges facing the sector in terms of its approach to weed, pest and disease control. The impact of legislation linked to such things as the Sustainable Use and Water Framework Directives is significant as are the cost pressures and other technical challenges. The emphasis is very firmly on adopting integrated approaches and making the most effective use of pesticides. Amenity is in the spotlight. It is important that the sector itself shows it can rise to the challenge and get fully behind best practice and driving up standards. It is important that the sector does this itself and it is not imposed by others which could have serious implications, hence our theme of staying in control. This conference will seek to address the hot issues, investigate the implications, the approaches available and hopefully find ways in which the challenge can become an opportunity.
The Amenity Forum Conference and Exhibition has become very much the must-attend event for all with an interest in this area with key speakers, wide coverage of the sector and opportunities to network and share ideas.
