The conference is organised for women involved in the dairy industry and will take place on 30th September using a virtual conference facility.

The event, organised by the RABDF and sponsored by HSBC, will run from 10-3pm and will consist of five sessions, including talks on the state of the dairy market, sustainability, animal health, and marketing.

The online event will also include a social event in the evening where the winner of this year’s Dairy Industry Woman of the Year Award will be revealed.

Ticket sales are now open and cost £25 for the event and evening social. Members of Women in Dairy can attend at a reduced rate of £18.75.

Commenting on the move, WID conference organiser, Rachel Bowcutt said: “We are delighted the conference is still going ahead this year. After a prolonged period of social distancing, we hope the virtual conference will not only provide as much learning and thinking as before but will offer some much-needed social interaction.

“The online event will make it more accessible and for this reason, we hope to attract more women from right across the country,” she said.
