Not long now to what promises to be our best ever Conference, with 72 MPs to celebrate! Thousands of members will be gathering in Brighton from 14th to 17th September.
If you are going then you need access to two documents, which have now been published:
- Conference Agenda. This gives the timetable for all the debates and speeches in the Main Auditorium. It has just been published today and you can read it online or download it here.
- Conference Directory. This lists all the fringe meetings, the training sessions and the exhibition stalls. You can read it online or download it here.
Plain text and clear print versions are also offered.
The contents of both will also be accessible through the Conference App, which will become available nearer the time.
If you can’t get along to Brighton then the good news is that you can follow all the main action for free. Each day the Conference proceedings will be streamed on the Liberal Democrats YouTube channel, while you can follow the debates in the Conference Agenda.
However if you would like to join in by voting on motions remotely then you need to register as an online member, which costs just £20. I did that last time and it worked very well.

Mary thanks for this piece! Wow! Being an online member sounds perfect for me. Any idea who in the party is responsible for this? It would be great to test this out with my Screenreader prior to the actual event to make sure that the voting element, not to mention everything else is accessible.
