This year we are hosting an exhibition as part of the conference which will be available to conference delegates only. There are also a range of sponsorship opportunities available.

There is a dedicated exhibition room which is situated next to the main auditorium and will house the exhibition and all the refreshment breaks. It is a large rectangular room and the exhibition stands will be located around the edge with refreshments and networking area in the centre. This means that each exhibition space will benefit from a good flow of traffic around the room and all the stands should receive equal exposure.

The event has received much interest so far and we expect to reach full capacity. The easily accessible location will attract delegates from all over the UK and by having an exhibition space or sponsorship package you will be reaching an audience of approximately 500+ key professionals within the counselling and psychotherapy arena. This established conference provides an informal and relaxed atmosphere in which to promote and highlight your products and services.
