Thanks to the UKPS for inviting me to speak - it will be a pleasure.

I want my talk to be driven by the members attending so I am thinking of doing a bit of a roundup of the ER2014 and the precursor Regulations and a discussion on "competence"  followed by a Q and A "open forum" and will happily field any issues from members regarding certification etc.

Get your thinking caps on please. Those who cant attend can email me questions or points for discussion in advance to danny@skewenergetics.co.uk and I will raise your points for you ( anonymously if required).

 

Looking forward to seeing as many as possible face to face.

Excellent ! It's just round the corner from me !

 

Who is doing the display ? Is it a contribution from all (like the experimentation day) or something a bit more organised ?

AGM display will be some cat4 paid by the society, and some contributions by AGM attendees. So firework donations are welcome and invited.
