It will take place from March 17-18 at the Marriot Forest of Arden Hotel and Country Club, in the Midlands.

Alan Hodgkinson, chief executive, added: "While we have set the basic details for the event in stone, we are still discussing the content of the conference itself. We want to make it as topical as possible so may leave deciding some of the subjects to be covered until a matter of weeks before the conference."
