AN event co-ordinator from the North-East is to organise a conference and annual meeting for the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD), being held in the region for the first time.
Jill Bennison of Blue Sky Events in Durham is helping to stage the three-day event, from Thursday May 15 at Ramside Hall Hotel, in Durham.
Ms Bennison has been planning of the event for several months with a team of funeral directors.
Derek Moss, who is the first North-East president of the NAFD, said: "We are really proud to be staging this event in the North East for the first time, and so need some first class event organisational skills to help us to make the right impression. Jill's experience convinced us that she was the right person for the job."
Since launching Blue Sky Events 16 months ago, Ms Bennison has been involved with and organised a host of events from product launches to international events for a range of clients.
Ms Bennison said: "When I first set up the business I never dreamt I would have such as diverse range of clients. The Funeral Directors' Conference is a challenge due to the sensitivity of the subject and it is a great learning experience for me."
