SECC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The annual Federation Conference was held at the Scottish Exhibition\u00a0and Conference Centre in Glasgow Nov 5th to 7th. This was a very stimulating and rewarding Conference. The standard of the speakers was excellent and thanks to the hard work of the organising committee\u00a0the event ran very smoothly. The Princess\u00a0Royal was guest of honour.<\/p>\n

This conference marked the end of the two year Modern Day\u00a0Slavery Resolution<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0APD Janet Hodgson presented a\u00a0review of the\u00a0of work carried out by Soroptimists\u00a0during this time which ranged from educating our communities to lobbying our parliamentarians. The conclusion was that this had been a successful resolution but there was still much to do in the fight against modern slavery both in the\u00a0UK and abroad.<\/p>\n
