 Nicky Heathcote, Non-Executive Chair of The Conveyancing Association, said:

“We have just begun our physical events after a period when we were of course unable to get together and it has been so positive to meet people face-to-face again. We are very excited about our Annual Conference & Dinner because it gives the entire sector and a variety of stakeholders a chance to meet under one roof to look at what the future holds for the conveyancing sector in a post-pandemic world. We have put together a very strong Conference agenda and with the Annual Dinner taking place afterwards, it promises to be a very informative and enjoyable day for all who attend. The entire CA team is looking forward to welcoming all our delegates and guests to the ICC and Celtic Manor on the 2nd December.”
