There is still time for those under 40 to apply for a fully funded place at this year’s Egg & Poultry Industry Conference (EPIC), taking place on 30 & 31 October in Newport, Wales.
The Organising Committee is encouraging people to apply for the Young Poultry Person Initiative, which was set up to encourage more young people involved in the poultry industry to attend the conference.
The programme is specifically targeted to people currently engaged either in employment or as a student within the UK poultry industry and applies to first time attendees only and be aimed primarily at people under the age of 40.
The EPIC organising committee with the generous help of the conference sponsors will fund all of the successful applicant’s attendance at the 55th EPIC in 2022 (excluding travel to and from the conference), which consists of conference registration, two nights’ accommodation either in the conference hotel venue or nearby and attendance at both conference dinners.
The deadline to apply has been extended to 21 September and applicants can submit the form via the EPIC website, here Young Poultry Person Initiative – YPPI | EPIC – Egg and Poultry Industry Conference (epiconference.co.uk)
