Delegates

Delegate Journey

At the recent 2010 Annual Forum in Bournemouth, we launched a new project called 'Delegate Journey'.

The overall aim of the delegate journey project is to assess the long term, ongoing value of the Annual Forum in the eyes of our delegates. It will help us to ensure the Forum remains relevant and useful for our delegates in the future. The results of which will be used as part of UKPHA's future Forum development.

We interviewed a range of delegates at this year's Forum, from varying public health backgrounds and sectors. We have included their delegate journey 'category' on each delegate journey write up which also includes their UKPHA/Forum experience.

Please click on the below links to read two of these Delegate Journey interviews:

We are very grateful to the delegates who took part in the project this year and we look forward to catching up with them all later this year to see whether they feel their attendance at the Forum has been valuable to their work in public health.

If you are interested in taking part in a future Delegate Journey interview, please contact Sarah Willan, Conference Development Consultant.
