Branch / East Midlands Branch

Welcome to the branch

We provide a programme of free and subsidised professional and social events through the year.

Equality, diversity and inclusivity are key elements to the East Midlands Branch strategy and our conference will continue to include a wide variety of sessions and speakers to reflect our branch. It is very important to us that all members are treated equally, and we endeavour to make as many of our events free of charge to ensure all job roles have an opportunity to attend.  

Our diary of events for the 2023/24 year is being developed with the aim of catering for events to support all our members whether a CFO or a first-year new joiner.
