Socitm 2009 annual conference

Re-inventing local public services – radical thinking, practical solutions

The recession and subsequent impact on public spending - local government expert Tony Travers told a Socitm audience recently to expect 0% growth for the next 10 years - means all public services must 'think radical' about how to meet future needs at a time of relentlessly growing demand.

Socitm 2009 will provide a timely opportunity to debate the options for public services at a time when demand is increasing, but budgets are static or falling. A uniquely qualified set of speakers has been invited to share ideas and experience and lead the discussion.

Confirmed speakers, conference topics and programme details can be found on the Socitm 2009 pages on this website.
