The new programme has been developed in collaboration with Abta’s Council of Regions and will feature a free event once a year in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and each of the regions in England.

The sessions have evolved from the previous regional meetings’ format to focus more on two-way exchanges, with only short and informal updates from Abta.

The emphasis is on knowledge exchange between members and the group, as well as networking with industry colleagues in their area, all with the aim of helping members run their business.

Alistair Rowland, chair of Abta and the Council of Regions, said: "It’s been great to have the feedback and insight from the Council of Regions in developing this new programme of engaging with members in the nations and regions."

Details so far for the new programme are available online and dates for other activity will be added shortly.
