In his new book, Adam reflects on the plants that have shaped his life and takes readers on a tour through his garden, explaining his design and planting choices and drawing on memories and years of experience.
A welcome return for Simon Calder
Travel expert Simon Calder completes the Seminar Theatre line-up and will be talking about some great overseas options for groups. The go-to person for TV channels and radio stations, Simon is a familiar speaker at the show and will be sharing some standout experiences for GTOs, whether it’s their first time taking a group abroad or those who are well travelled.
The travel correspondent for The Independent as well as an acclaimed TV and radio broadcaster and commentator, Simon told us: “The Group Leisure & Travel Show is an annual highlight because I meet a whole range of group organisers and travel professionals who together are enriching so many lives by providing great tourism experiences.
“I’ll learn a lot about what’s happening across the sector, and I also know if I turn up nice and early I’ll be able to grab a bacon butty!”
Exhibitors include cruise lines, tour operators, hotel groups, gardens, historic attractions, museums and much more.
The competitions are only open to people who attend the show. Terms and conditions apply and entries must be received by 28th September.
