This November, LOCSU is holding the first ever Regional Optical Conferences across the country, and we’re inviting LOCs to come and join us!

Seven ROCs will take place – one in each region – between the 12 and 22 November 2024. Each conference has been designed in collaboration with LOCs, reflecting the preference, priorities and needs of each region. LOCSU have now released the venues for each event, outlined below.

This year, the ROCs will be held in the place of the National Optical Conference (NOC), which usually takes place in November but has been postponed to May 2025 – details will be shared as soon as possible.
