ISG National Conference 2011

The venue for this year’s conference was the Holiday Inn Kensington Forum hotel in London.

The conference was a one and a half day event, with a social occasion on the Saturday night after the  first day’s conference, followed by a morning of further activities.

Being a conference venue within a hotel, onsite accommodation was available, with many other options nearby including a Premier Inn.
