NAEGA Conference 2009
7-9 October 2009, Redworth Hall, Darlington
In response to feedback from members about the timing of the conference and taking into account the considerable amount of time since the event has been held in the North East, NAEGA chair, Ann Ruthven, is delighted to announce that the 2009 National Conference will be held at Redworth Hall Hotel, near Darlington, from Wednesday 7 to Friday 9 October.
Redworth Hall Hotel is a breathtaking Jacobean country house in County Durham. Surrounded by landscaped gardens and enchanting woodland, yet only minutes from junction 58 of the A1 and convenient for Newcastle, Durham or York.
It has some of the best conference and banqueting facilities in the North East of England and is an ideal venue for a residential conference. It's just five miles from Darlington Station on the main east coast rail line, with a free shuttle service to and from the hotel for NAEGA delegates. By air it's 13 miles from Durham Tees Airport, or 35 miles from Newcastle Airport.
The 2009 venue offers the added luxury of 150 acres of stunning woodland, which delegates can enjoy at their leisure. There is also a comprehensive health and leisure Club with 17-metre swimming pool, fitness suite, sun beds, hair and beauty salons and outdoor tennis courts.
There is plenty to see and do if delegates want to stay on. Once you've explored the extensive woodland around the Redworth Hall Hotel, there is the great Beamish Open Air Museum, the Durham Dales or the city of Durham and its 900-year-old cathedral on the doorstep.
