Each year, the ELA Pro Bono Committee organises an up-dater conference tailored specifically for, and free of charge to, those who work in the voluntary sector and trade unions. Unlike other ELA training events which are only available to members, this conference is open to anyone who works in the voluntary sector or a trade union.
The theme of the 2008 conference will be discrimination.
