Overview

A note on registering for this year’s conference and ensuring fair workplace representation

The ANMF (Vic Branch) Annual Delegates Conference continues to be a popular event for delegates, with places filling fast and venue limitations on conference attendees. To ensure the conference remains representative and accessible to ANMF delegates across the state – and consistent with feedback from the ANMF delegate survey in late 2025 – there may be limitations to workplace numbers to ensure equitable access to as many workplaces as possible. Places may not be able to be guaranteed, and will be subject to Branch Council review. Please register your interest and you will be notified in due course if your place is not secured.
