North East Branch

The North East Branch brings together over 100 professionals from across Northumberland, County Durham Tyne and Wear and Teesside. Together, we create a platform to exchange ideas, address challenges affecting the country, and connect with peers. 

Led by dedicated volunteers, the branch amplifies members’ voices, offering vital insights to the IPS staff and Board. This advocacy ensures that local priorities and concerns are represented at national level. 

Any IPS member living or working in the North East of England is welcome to join the branch. 

Branch events and meetings

Meetings are held up to three times a year, some being virtual and others face to face. We hold an annual conference in November.

Our next meeting will be held on 9 September 2025, 2pm – 4pm online
