A new home for the dinner
The British APCO Dinner heads to Liverpool in 2027, taking place at Hill Dickinson Stadium, the new home of Everton Football Club.
Set on the city's waterfront at Bramley-Moore Dock, the stadium provides a memorable new setting to bring together professionals from across the emergency services and public safety technology sector.
The evening begins with pre-dinner networking drinks in Merchants, before guests move through to The Yard for the British APCO Dinner.
The Ian Thompson Bursary supports people starting their careers in public safety critical communications across the UK and Ireland. Recipients receive funding to attend major international events, as well as mentoring and opportunities to share what they learn.
Best known for Dictionary Corner on Channel 4's Countdown, Susie Dent is a writer and broadcaster who explores the origins and surprising meanings of the words we use every day.
She is the author of more than a dozen books on language and co-hosts the Something Rhymes with Purple podcast with Gyles Brandreth. Susie will join us as our special guest speaker in Liverpool.
