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.

SUMMARY:NABMA One Day Virtual Conference 2021
DESCRIPTION:When is it? \nNABMA is pleased to announce details of its popular One Day Conference that will be held on: \nThursday 4 February 2021 from 0930 to 1330 by Zoom. \nSadly\, we will not be able to meet at the Council House\, Birmingham as usual for the first major markets event of a new year\, but we can bring everyone together\, either in your office or at home\, in a digital get together. 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

This is an event of contrast with arguably the largest supplier of specialist and continental markets in the UK sharing a platform with a small family business that is now one of the largest private operators in the UK.  Add to the mix a market delivered by the Enrolled Freemen of Grimsby and a West Country operator specialising in a travelling market of local food and drink and artisans. We ask how has the pandemic impacted on their businesses and programmes of events? Have do they plan for 2021 and beyond\, and how do they retain and attract new traders? \nIt should be a fascinating conversation – don’t miss it. \nBOOK HERE\n\n                    Member Contacts (#7)Name of Market/AuthorityHow many contacts need adding/updating?Name of ContactPosition/RoleEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressPosition/RoleName of ContactEmail AddressSubmit
