Recent subjects have been varied from operational to policy matters. \nWe are conscious that not everyone\, particularly new NABMA members\, may understand Basecamp and how it works and\, importantly\, how you can regulate posts to your inbox. \nWe have therefore set up an open zoom session for Tuesday 1 August 2023 at 14.00 for an informal discussion of interested NABMA members. \nNABMA appointed Chris Cotton\, a very experienced market professional\, as our Basecamp moderator and we believe that the time is now right to reflect on how Basecamp is used\, who uses it and why\, and whether it needs a few tweaks. \nThe aim of the session is to talk with Chris Cotton and also Ian Holmes\, the NABMA Media and Technical Support Consultant looking at: \nAn introduction as to why Basecamp was set up?\nHow to use it and get maximum value?\nPost covid\, does it need to change\, if so why and how and what would you want from this important NABMA service?\nIf you would like to share in this one hour session then please register – https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUoduGuqzojGtJ80hTbXU1xLi7OLPBqrHIZ URL:https://nabma.com/event/lets-talk-basecamp/ LOCATION:Virtual Event for Members CATEGORIES:Virtual Meeting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://nabma.com/version2020/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Basecamp-1-1-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20230228T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230228T123000 DTSTAMP:20260512T134413 CREATED:20230202T112557Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230202T112557Z UID:32455-1677578400-1677587400@nabma.com SUMMARY:Markets and the Legal Framework DESCRIPTION:Last year NABMA organised two very successful legal seminars that provided an update on various issues relating to market law.

Many markets are now operated by local councils and more are considering delivering this important local service that can help regenerate high streets and town centres and provide start up business opportunities. \nMarkets can also be an important part of the levelling up agenda in terms of improving public services and helping to restore a sense of community and local pride. \nThis event will look at recent changes to legislation in terms of planning and the use of public realm. Importantly it will discuss how a local council can operate a market\, both in terms of legislation and a policy framework. It will also share good practice and case studies from successful markets. \nNABMA Members can book here URL:https://nabma.com/event/nabma-slcc-markets-local-councils-and-supporting-communities/ CATEGORIES:Virtual Meeting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://nabma.com/version2020/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/slcc-nabma-digital-virtual-conference-e1655296126334-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20220623T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20220623T130000 DTSTAMP:20260512T134413 CREATED:20220614T131010Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220620T092417Z UID:30533-1655978400-1655989200@nabma.com SUMMARY:NABMA Midlands and Wales Regional Conference - Cancelled DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately\, despite best efforts\, we have decided to cancel the Midlands and Wales Event on Thursday 23 June due to very low numbers as booked.

Forest Row is a multiple  award winning market including having the accolade of being a NABMA Best Small Community Market. Bridport has a market tradition stretching as far back as 1253 rivalled by Saffron Walden with a market charter from 1141. Saffron Walden even boasts Jamie Oliver as one its regular market customers. Downham Market is widely regarded as one of Norfolk’s oldest and best market towns. Each of these markets are at the heart of their communities  and local history. \nLocal Councils have had a tough time during the pandemic. Little or no money has been received from government and the resulting impact on local finance has been severe. The updates from each of our panel will be very different to previous events. \nWe ask our panel – how has the pandemic impacted on them as individuals and  their markets? What are their plans for 2021 and beyond\, and how do they see the future of the markets industry? \nIt should be another fascinating conversation – don’t miss it. \nBOOK NOW  \nBookings are now closed for this event.

We hope you will join us. \nOur Conference discussion. \nWithout doubt 2020 has been an unprecedented year of worry\, change and threat to markets and market people. NABMA surveys suggest that many in the industry have concerns and a lack of confidence about the future. Others have a different viewpoint as some markets are suggesting that emerging from the pandemic is their moment in the sunshine as they experience a renewed trust\, and both returning and new customers. A consistent viewpoint however is that markets can play a leading role in supporting firstly the survival\, and then the renaissance\, of our high streets. \nSo\, our Conference will pose the question as we enter 2021– are our markets really in crisis? \nWhy should I attend? \nThe conference will be of interest to anyone with a passion and commitment to the future of their markets. As one of the recognised top influences to create vital and vibrant streets then markets can play a prominent role in offering business start-ups alongside their attraction to boost tourism\, employment\, the local economy and social cohesion. We appreciate that our industry will continue to face many challenges as a result of the impact of the pandemic. We are also aware that in recent months markets have demonstrated resilience and a positive appetite to accept change\, that can create new opportunities\, and at the same time attract new people and new ways of trading to our markets. \nOur draft programme \n  \n\nAn invitation has been sent to Kelly Tolhurst MP\, the government Minister with responsibility for High Streets in her portfolio.\nMark Robinson\, Chairman of the High Street Task Force Board who is guiding the work of the Task Force and acting as a national voice for high streets\, supporting them to transform town and city centres.\nJoe Barrett\, co-founder of Teenage Market and member of the Government’s High Street Taskforce.\nA panel session of market experts who will look at how markets and market management will need to change\, evolve and attract new traders to sustain the industry and the high street.\nSessions of good practice from markets that are meeting the challenges in terms of use of social media\, modern technology and encouraging cashless operations to reinvent themselves.\nThe award ceremony for the NABMA promoted Blachere Illumination Market Heroes 2020 as we recognise both markets and market people that have made a difference within their communities during the pandemic.\n\n  \nBooking Arrangements \nOur aim is to bring as many markets people together as possible to discuss the future of our industry. We have therefore decided to keep costs low with an individual NABMA delegate fee of just £50 plus vat. \nNon NABMA members are welcome to join with us at £75 plus vat per delegate. \nBook Now here https://nabma.com/nabma-one-day-virtual-conference-2021/ or below\n  \nNABMA looks forward to our One Day Conference and the chance to bring the NABMA family and friends together at the start of another challenging year for markets. We do hope you will join us. \n\n LYLM Digital AssetsFirst NameLast NameMarket / Authority NamePlease send the LYLM digital assets to me via: WeTransfer by Email Shared Dropbox Folder Shared Google Drive Folder Direct Download Link (Zip File)Email Address for above selectionRequest the Digital Assets \n \n  URL:https://nabma.com/event/nabma-one-day-virtual-conference-2021/ CATEGORIES:Conference,Virtual Meeting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://nabma.com/version2020/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/student-council-conference-flyer-copy.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20210128T103000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20210128T120000 DTSTAMP:20260512T134414 CREATED:20210119T155036Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210119T155036Z UID:22286-1611829800-1611835200@nabma.com SUMMARY:Meet the Manager - Free Virtual Event DESCRIPTION:NABMA is delighted at the success of its first three events in its new “Meet the Manager” programme.
