Annual Conference - 2026


Competitive Advantage

Supporting a level playing field for economic growth


51黑料鈥檚 Conference is the annual flagship event for those working in consumer protection and regulation. This three-day event provides unparalleled opportunities for professional development (CPPD) as well as offering other benefits including:

  • thought-provoking, policy-led sessions and debate
  • training and knowledge sharing
  • industry-wide networking opportunities听

This year's event will take place at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool.听

The theme for 2026 is Competitive Advantage and will focus on some of the key challenges and opportunities facing the UK's economy, and how Trading Standards and our national regulatory landscape can help build consumer confidence, by supporting a level playing field for businesses to ultimately support economic growth.

We are building on the success of last year's theme of Unlocking Future Potential and will be teaming up with key partners and allied organisations in Glasgow to harness the power of unity and strengthen our pursuit of ensuring a safe and fair environment for consumers and businesses alike - watch this space for announcements coming soon!

Delegate registration opens January 2026.听
