Message from Tracy Frisby - NACO Chair.
It was a real pleasure to see over 100 delegates attend the 2026 Training Event and AGM – held in the magnificent surroundings of Sheffield Town Hall.
It was a great day – full of learning, thoughtful discussion and the chance to reconnect with colleagues from across the country who share a passion for civic life and public service. The training sessions prompted some excellent conversations and it was encouraging to see such strong engagement and enthusiasm.
The AGM is always a valuable opportunity to reflect on the year gone by, celebrate key achievements and look ahead to the next year of civic work.
Huge thanks to Sheffield for being such generous hosts, to all our speakers for sharing their insight and experience, and to everyone who attended and contributed. Days like this really highlight the strength of our network and the importance of coming together as a profession.
Already looking forward to what’s next
Many thanks all
Tracy
