As a health and safety trainer, you already know the value of your service – contributing to safer workplaces and keep workers well informed.
You also know that health and safety training doesn’t often fill candidates with excitement. This one-day workshop will help you to keep up-to-date with current thinking, and you will take away new ideas to liven up your courses.
Friday 17th May 9am or 12.30pm – Henderson Business Centre, Norwich
Guest Speaker Iain Murrell from Price Bailey’s Corporate Finance team will be joining Richard Ross to present this month’s seminar on Business Succession planning.
The Seminar will give you a valuable insight into the business transfer process and be especially useful for people who are:
Thinking of acquiring other businesses
Thinking of selling a business
Thinking of passing a business on to the next generation
Thinking of building real value in a business
Iain will be giving an overview of SME valuation techniques and theory along with an accountant’s perspective on what leads to a successful business transfer.
Richard will be looking at non-financial factors that may give a better indication of future potential. Drawing on first-hand research conducted at the UEA, we will argue that addressing cultural issues and creating appropriate internal and external structures are important elements in preparing a business for sale or transfer.
We expect each seminar to last around an hour and a half with a further 30 minutes for questions and discussion.
A light lunch or breakfast will be available. The seminar is free of charge but places are limited.
While we would, of course, be delighted if you decided you would like to do business with us, the seminars are educational and informative rather than sales orientated.

Have you ever wanted to be a better negotiator? Get a better deal for you or your client? Settle cases earlier and on better terms?
Dave Richards, a mediator with Leathes Prior’s mediation arm, mediation-1st, had joined up with the Norfolk & Norwich Junior Lawyers Division to present a negotiation skills seminar to junior lawyers in Norfolk and Norwich. The seminar will cover straightforward topics such as preparation and how to get to negotiation, tactical considerations such as the BATNA and knowing how to spot negotiation styles and more in-depth tactics including neuro linguistic programming and subtle body language to watch out for (and to use to your advantage!).
Dave is currently ranked 27 nationally (out of around 170 who are given a ranking) in the Clerksroom independent league table of mediators and has acted as lead mediator for a wide range of disputes including those relating to consumer issues, landlord and tenant matters, boundary disputes, probate disputes and corporate and commercial arrangements and has acted as assistant mediator for disputes involving commercial agreements, corporate arrangements and high-value sales disagreements
The seminar is at 6pm on 23 May 2013 in the Seminar Room at Leathes Prior’s Corporate Office at 27-28 Tombland, Norwich, Norfolk NR3 1RE. It will last about an hour (and therefore carries one accredited CPD point).

Pensions may be complicated but retirement shouldn’t be a mystery
Norwich seminar, Friday 14th June
We would be delighted if you were able to join us for our nextseminar.
We’ll be running two sessions, one at 9.00 and another at 12.30.
The presentations will give useful background information for all professionals and would be of particular interest to people thinking of retiring in the next ten years.
This month we are focussing on retirement and creating income-producing portfolios. The session will start with an overview of pension legislation before looking at alternative income sources, showing how a combined approach can make the most of tax reliefs. After introducing the basics of portfolio construction we will conclude by exploring retirement strategies that can stretch modest resources further. Although some of the content is specific to pensions most will be relevant to any situation where an income is required.
We expect each seminar to last around an hour and a half with a further 30 minutes for questions and discussion. Chadwicks are approved by the SRA as accredited CPD providers.
A light lunch or breakfast will be available. The seminar is free of charge but places are limited.
