Liberal Democrat European Group at Conference
This Autumn, Liberal Democrats from across the country will meet in Bournemouth to host our Conference, which you can buy tickets to here.
With internationalism being one of the central pillars of what Liberal Democrats campaign for, LDEG has worked with our partners in the party to create a packed 4 days for all our members and supporters.
Conference Stand
The membership team at LDEG have secured an Exhibition Stand at Conference, where attendees will be able to learn about the work of LDEG. Don't hesitate to visit us! Members of the Executive will be running the stall, and there will be opportunities to meet our partners including the Liberal International British Group.
