How to book

There are two ways that you can book your place at the 2010 Annual Assembly of Standards Committees, 18 - 19 October 2010 at the ICC in Birmingham.

The fastest and easiest way to make sure of your place is to book online

However, you may prefer to download a paper copy of the booking form and fax or post it to Benedict Business Resources, our event managers. Their contact details are provided on the booking form.

We regret that we cannot accept telephone bookings.

Shortly after you’ve booked your place, you will be sent an information pack with confirmation of your booking.

What is the cost?

For the third year running, there is no price increase for the Annual Assembly:

Full conference attendance £430 plus VAT
One day attendance £230 plus VAT

The fee for guests accompanying delegates to the conference dinner is £42.50 plus VAT per guest. We regret that this fee is non-refundable.

Please note that the two-day fee is for a single delegate, attending the conference for two days. If two separate delegates wish to attend one day each, the fee will be £230 plus VAT per delegate. It is not permissible to split delegate places. Any authority wishing to change a two-day delegate place to two one-day delegate places will be invoiced the balance of the fee.

Ways to pay

On receipt of your booking, we will send you an invoice. Payment of this invoice is expected within 28 days of the invoice’s date. You can pay by BACS, or send a cheque payable to the Standards Board for England. Cheques must be returned to our event managers, Benedict Business Resources. BACS and other contact details will be provided on the invoice.

Cancellations and refunds

There is an administration charge of £40 to process any cancellations made after a signed booking form is received.

It will not be possible to refund any fees if notification of cancellation is received after 20 September 2010. Any booking cancelled after this date will be subject to the full conference fee.
