As with any opposition Party, it's sometimes difficult to see behind the headlines and get a detailed sense their vision for the third sector if they form a government. This one-off event mixes keynote addresses from the most senior Conservative figures through to public 'roundtable' discussions between front-bench representatives and third sector chief executives who have been harvesting ideas and case studies to present and debate. This will provide stimulating and educative sessions where participants and the audience alike can really get under the hood and into the detail of Conservative thinking, and come away with a true sense of what it would mean for your organisation should the next election result in a new government.

Speakers Include:

Alan Duncan MP
Andrew Lansley MP
