North West England & North Wales

This region comprises a very large geographical area. We have a very keen organising team which meets four times a year and shares in arranging our events. We usually run regional meetings and seminars during Spring and Autumn, together with factory visits in Summer. Regional members also look forward to our Autumnal President-elect meeting, which is usually combined with MSc Project presentations at the University of Manchester. We are also always keen to run roadshows and open technical seminars.

We aim to identify current hot topics for our meetings, and we believe that the range of events on offer should appeal to a wide range of people including, for example, health and safety students as well as our experienced professional hygienists who will be looking for CPD points.

On latest event was held on the 9 March 2011 and was called North West - Getting on top of Long Latency Disease.  You can find out more information and download the presentations from: http://www.bohs.org/nw-long-latency-disease/
 

We do tend to concentrate our activities on the Mersey basin and Greater Manchester areas where we expect a higher density of interested professionals, but each year we try to run at least one event in north Wales. Any forthcoming events in this region will be included in the Event Calendar.

Bill Williams is the Regional Organiser.
