NABMA One Day Conference 2026
What’s Next for Markets: Supporting Change and Devolution
The government is advancing an ambitious new round of local government reorganisation, a process that will replace two-tier local government – comprising county councils and district councils – with a new single tier of unitary authorities. The agenda will have a huge impact on NABMA members, and NABMA as the voice of markets itself. Our Conference sets out to highlight potential risks and opportunities for local government as leaders embed these new authorities and transform local public services.

Meet the Chief Executive
2026-04-23 10:30 - 11:30 | Virtual Event for Members
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.
