If you’re planning to be in Harrogate this weekend at Spring Conference, don’t forget that LDV welcomes guest submissions on most topics. We can’t be everywhere at once so we actively encourage conference goers to submit articles. And if you’re at home watching from afar, why not pen a piece on how conference is perceived from without the bubble?

As at previous conferences, the LDV team will be filing copy, but will have to wait until we arrive in Harrogate to work out what just what facilities we have. Will it be a cupboard under the stairs? Will we be sitting on the edges of our beds in a dingy B&B somewhere hopefully pointing our laptops at the corner of the room in a desperate attempt to get next-door’s unsecured wifi to work? Or will this year be the year when Conf Office get the Leader’s suite mixed up with the LDV Cupboard and we get glorious luxury? Tune in next week…

Whatever we get, we will be doing our best to keep you posted with all the news from conference with opinion pieces, reportage, podcasts, tweets… and maybe a few more new multimedia tricks and turns.
