NABMA/NALC Local Council Seminar 2010
Friday 4th June 2010
Markets, Government & Devolution
The 3rd National Association of British Market Authorities and National Association of Local Councils Seminar is open to all local councils that either currently operate retail markets, speciality markets, car boot sales or farmers’ markets or have aspirations of taking over existing markets under delegation, or starting local markets within their communities. Please note that there is no delegate fee for this event.
Remember that all local councils have a power to operate markets. At a time when markets have never had such a higher profile with Government, then this seminar is a chance to update your knowledge on markets and learn what an important contribution they can make to local and national policy strategies including tourism, retail, healthy eating, employment and social cohesion.
Markets are now at the heart of Government thinking in terms of vital and vibrant town centres and place management. Make sure your Council sends a representative(s) to this free event to further your knowledge of the important contribution that markets can make to sustainable communities. Our hope is that after experiencing this training exercise in markets that you may consider joining NABMA due to the many service benefits that we can offer.

The event is scheduled between 10.30 and 15.00 hours with tea and coffee on arrival from 10.00; a buffet lunch and an opportunity to visit the Shrewsbury Indoor Market.
