Our annual multi-disciplinary conference to showcase the work taking place across the South East Coast in support of the Armed Forces Community and the Armed Forces Covenant will be held on Tuesday 22 January 2019.
This is a whole day event with the main day starting at 10:00 and closing at approximately 16:30. Registration is from 09:00 giving you plenty of time to network and view the market stalls.
The feedback from last years’ event was excellent and we would encourage you to hold this date in your diary!
The conference will be co-chaired by Dr Nick Lake and Dr David Chesover, Chairs for the Sussex and Kent & Medway Armed Forces Networks respectively. The agenda for the day is still being finalised but we are pleased to announce that the following speakers have been confirmed:
