Following the success of our Eastern Annual Conference in 2021 jointly with SDN (Skills Development Network) and FFF (Future Focused Finance) we are excited to bring you a fun packed Eastern Conference in 2022 over 2 days. The conference will be a hybrid of in person (subject to government guidelines on face-to-face events) and online as we continue to take advantage of accessibility that technology brings to expand the reach of our events.

Our theme this year is ‘United we stand, divided we fail’, the schedule is exciting and includes a line-up of some fantastic speakers, including something for everyone.  From top headliners, motivational speakers, and patients’ stories, to sessions that cover current developments in the NHS, supported by workshops that you can elect to attend on the day, this is your one stop shop for personal development alongside an opportunity to network with colleagues from across the Region. For attendees who are qualified, this event alone will go a long way towards delivering your CPD requirements.

Tickets are available for individual days (in person and online) or for the full two-day conference (in person or online).  In person attendance is encouraged and the conference will follow strict COVID measures.

Building on the success of last year’s inaugural HFMA Branch awards, this year we will be offering a residential option and awards dinner to celebrate the achievements of East of England branch award winners.

Places for the gala dinner are limited; we are operating a ballot for FREE places at the gala dinner and accommodation.  As the regional DOFs meeting will be held at the conference, several places have been reserved to cover these members.  Applications for dinner and accommodation tickets will be closed on 7 February and a ballot held if there are insufficient tickets available.  You will be informed of the outcome of the ballot.  If your application for a ballot ticket is not successful, you will automatically be given a two-day Face to Face ticket.

What’s more; this year it is FREE to all NHS staff.
