General Information

Venue

The conference will take place at the ICC Birmingham (8 Centenary Square, Birmingham, B1 2EA)

Accommodation

Birmingham can get very busy in May, so early booking of your hotel accommodation is recommended. 

The Hyatt Regency, Birmingham is located adjacent to the ICC, Birmingham and will be used as the official ABS speaker hotel. If you wanted to stay at the Hyatt, then please do book your accommodation as soon as possible. 

There are plenty of hotels located in and around the city centre, close to the ICC and a full list of official conference hotels can be found and booked via Reservation Highway who are the official accommodation provider for the event.

Top Tips Session

We are planning on holding a session at the ABS Conference 2025 in which all members and delegates can take part.

We are inviting you all to suggest a ‘top tip’ you have, which has improved patient care or service provision, or which you find useful in clinic or theatre and to do a short, 5 minute presentation on this in the session at the Conference. 

Sharing knowledge is vital to improvement and we would love to hear what helps our members in their day to day work. Anyone presenting in the session will get a free place at the ABS Annual Dinner.

Please outline your top tips in less than 500 words and send them for consideration to Lucy Davies at lucydavies@absgbi.org.uk by the 31st January 2025.
