Our first online event of the year is an opportunity to meet the new NABMA Chief Executive, David Catterall DL who took over the NABMA reins at the start of 2026.

This free online event will be held on Thursday 23rd April 2026 at 10:30am.

David brings to NABMA a wealth of local government experience with a background in commercial services and hospitality. He is also a Deputy Lord Lieutenant for Greater Manchester.

This is a chance for NABMA members to virtually meet David and informally chat markets, the high street and NABMA.

David will tell us about his first few weeks in office;  his thoughts on the future of the markets industry; and with the looming changes in local government and regional opportunities to look at what lead role NABMA may fulfil into the future.

It is also your opportunity to tell us what organisation you expect NABMA to be going forward and what will be the priority services it must continue to deliver.

Please register and join with us for what promises to be an excellent discussion and exchange of views and opinions.
