In June 2007, more than 330 people took part in the BDA's Annual Conference in Belfast. Participants agreed that the packed agenda kept them busy, with plenary and poster sessions competing with the parallel sessions and the exhibition for delegate's attention.
As well as the scheduled presentations, delegates also witnessed the launch of the Chairman's Manifesto and heard about future plans to work more closely with SNDRi.
Finally at the AGM, Judith Catherwood handed the reigns over to the new BDA Chairman, Pauline Douglas.
Our thanks once again to the supporters of the 2007 conference:
