The Verdict - voting questions from the day
The conference chair, Julian Dobson, has been blogging about the day and we would encourage you to see what's being said
This comment was sent to us by a delegate who works as a Local Improvement Advisor:
"What a great conference! It turned out to be well worth taking time out for! We had some very stimulating discussions and I learned a lot from the speakers and the other delegates. Its great to get to discuss the practical realities of delivery with people actually working in neighbourhoods rather than just second-hand from researchers and consultants. I've taken away new ideas and contacts which will definitely be useful in my work."
