CFH Electoral News | January 2025
Hello,
Happy New Year and welcome to the January edition of CFH Electoral News. I hope you each had an enjoyable break over Christmas surrounded by family and friends.
I’ve had a great time over the last couple of months looking through all the images you have submitted for our annual calendar. If you requested a copy you should have received yours by now. For anyone who hasn’t, don’t worry - I’ll have some spares with me at AEA so feel free to stop by and grab one!
Speaking of the AEA Annual Conference, Liz Philpot and I are thrilled to be attending again this year on behalf of CFH Print UK. We’ll be there from Sunday 16th February at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole. You can find us at Stand 8 in the exhibitor’s area where we’re excited to catch up with you, hand out some of our event giveaways and take part in the conference’s engaging presentations and practical workshops when we have a spare minute.
This month we’ve been getting to grips with the English Devolution White Paper to ensure we’re fully prepared to support our clients. By the end of January the government will announce which authorities are on the devolution priority programme, and while there’s no timeline yet for local government reorganization we’re keeping an eye out for updates and will share any key developments with you.
In the meantime enjoy the rest of your month and I look forward to seeing you at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole in February.
Take care,
Nicki Newburn
