Tomorrow there is a conference being held for CE professionals in the North of England. I had heard rumours about this but been unable to find out any details on the Internet as CEPEG, the organisation running this conference does not appear to have a website as far as I can tell. The information I have now was posted only yesterday on the blog page of Legacy Rainbow House, the centre hosting the conference.

This states that it is the 'first ever CEPEG Conference' which is strange as I do know CEPEG have been holding conferences annually for a number of years in various locations, but this is the first in Cheshire.
No papers, presentations, programmes have ever been made public so I can't say what sort of topics are discussed or what kind of practice is reported on. As those involved in CE are thinly distributed worldwide and do not get to meet very often - the World Congress only happens every four years - it is a shame that information shared at meetings such as these is not made available to those who cannot attend. Even organisations holding conferences for members/professionals only usually publish proceedings or make information generally available.
Perhaps this will happen this time. I will keep an eye out. If anyone knows of a public source for such information, please do let me know.

I am assured that last week's national conference will produce a published written record as soon as can be arranged.
Extensive information has been available on the Internet for some time:

It got in the local rag too.
Whoops, sorry, typos!
CEPEG showed their off line website at the conference and this will be live very soon. This will then provide a good forum for sharing of information. The conference was attended by 125 people from across the UK. More information will be available soon.
Thanks for this information, Mel. Please do keep me informed and I will look forward to viewing the new website.
