Local Authority Conference

The LGPS: another year of challenge and change

  

The LGPS is gearing up for substantial reforms as part of the Government’s growth agenda, heralding both fresh opportunities and complex challenges. We’ve seen the Government’s proposals and timescales, but what happens next?

Join us at the Local Authority Conference 2025 to explore this question and many others.

Our conference programme covers critical topics including pooling, local investment, the triennial valuation and divestment challenges. Discuss how to solve practical issues affecting local authority funds including recruitment and retention, good governance, surplus management and administration.

The event will take place at a brand-new venue: Wyboston Lakes in Bedfordshire, offering delegates the perfect experience as we bring together everyone involved in the LGPS to make connections and turn challenge into opportunity. 

Book your place now.
