Lake District authority's conference is a natural environment for sponsors prepared to pool resources

Lakes for Living, Lakes for Life is a first in the UK. It will bring together senior decision makers from all over the world to enjoy enthusiastic discussion of how those involved in business, the community and the environment can and should work together for the benefit of lake environments.

The conference will be jointly hosted by the Environment Agency and Lake District National Park Authority in the perfect location of the Lake District National Park, England's largest National Park and home to the country's longest 'mere', Windermere, deepest water, Wastwater and tallest 'pike', Scafell.

The venue for the event will be the four-star Low Wood Hotel, which occupies a privileged shoreline setting offering fine views across Lake Windermere. The organisers can offer potential sponsors an excellent platform to promote their organisation within this renowned location and stunning environment.

The conference aims to bring together all those who work with lakes worldwide and contribute to the development of the network of practitioners across Europe and beyond. Over 150 senior decision makers and influencers are expected to attend from environmental, economic and community sectors associated with Lakeland access across the globe. Through workshops, site visits and key note speeches, the conference will deliver and collate the very best of experience and current practice.

In addition, delegates will benefit from the chance to build networks with overseas colleagues and learn about their successes and experiences.

Delegates taking part in the debate will come from worldwide organisations including the Living Lakes Network in Europe and beyond and the North American Lake Management Society (NALMS) in the US and Canada, as well as a host of key UK environmental alliances including Natural England, The National Trust, the RSPB and the Forestry Commission.

Together with the strong presence of organisations with an economic direction, such as Cumbria Tourism and the North West Development Agency, their combined experiences will enrich the conference and contribute to future worldwide lake management policy. The day programme includes energising and inspiring international presentations by key sector representatives.

Structured workshops will address each element of the mix to explore and understand the core issues. Delegates will also enjoy practical site visits to see exemplars of environmental, community and business initiatives to stimulate discussion between all those who work in the economic, environmental and community sectors within lake catchments. Each destination catchment has its share of problems, attractions and opportunities.

A programme of evening entertainment will add a lighter touch to the proceedings as delegates are invited to enjoy the company of new found friends and colleagues against the magnificent backdrop of the Lake District.

"We will forge strong working relationships with all our sponsors", say the organisers, "to identify the potential synergies between our organisations and ensure our objectives are aligned and promoted effectively. There are a number of sponsorship packages available which are outlined in the conference brochure, A Slice of the Action. These can be tailored to your individual requirements which we would be pleased to discuss further".
