Social Events at the 2015 Annual Conference

On Tuesday evening, after Welcome Drinks in the Exhibition, over 100 delegates went to a local Italian restaurant while at the same time more than 30 from the Rising Generations Group went to a Tapas restaurant.  We had 7 entries for the 2nd SRP Bake Off - with cakes displayed during the conference tea break on Wednesday afternoon and judged by Marie Cole, wife of incoming President, Pete Cole.  The Annual Dinner took place on Wednesday evening with the Annual Award Ceremony followed by entertainment from amazing local band, The Vibes, who succeeded in getting most of the guests to take to the dance floor.
