NORTHERN LOGISTICS FORUM · 8–9 October · Sheffield Arena

Now in its eleventh year, the Forum brings together warehouse operators, transport planners and software vendors. This year the programme has been reorganised around three streams running in parallel: Automation, Last Mile, and Workforce.

Delegates may move freely between streams, but the Workforce sessions on the afternoon of 9 October require separate registration as capacity is limited to sixty seats. There is no additional charge.

Standard delegate pass: £340. Early registration before 15 August: £275. Groups of four or more from the same organisation: £250 each, available at any time.

The exhibition hall is open to the public without charge on 9 October from 10 a.m.

Subject: Registration — Calder Freight

Hello,

I would like to register five colleagues and myself for the Forum. I understand from your website that we have missed the earlier rate, but I believe our numbers qualify us for the other reduction.

Four of the six of us would like to attend the Workforce sessions you mention as having limited seats. Please confirm whether these are still available; if they are full, we will adjust our plans rather than pay for something we cannot use.

One further question. Two of my team are only available on the second day. Is a single-day pass offered, or would they need the full delegate pass?

Regards,
Joanna Whitfield
Operations Manager, Calder Freight

ALDGATE TOOL HIRE — Cancellation and Refund Policy

Bookings cancelled more than seven days before the hire start date are refunded in full. Cancellations between two and seven days before receive a refund of fifty per cent. Cancellations within forty-eight hours of the start date are not refundable.

Where equipment proves faulty on collection and we cannot supply a replacement of equivalent specification, the hire is cancelled and refunded in full regardless of notice period. Faults reported after the equipment has left our premises are assessed individually.

Refunds are processed within ten working days to the original payment method.

Subject: Booking AT-7734 — floor saw

I collected the floor saw booked under AT-7734 on Tuesday morning for a four-day hire. The blade guard was already loose when I inspected it in your yard, and your colleague assured me it would hold. By Wednesday afternoon it had worked free entirely and the saw became unusable. My team lost the rest of that day and all of Thursday waiting for an alternative.

I returned the saw this morning. I am not asking for compensation for the lost days, though I could reasonably do so. What I do expect is a refund of the hire charge, since the equipment was defective from the start and this was pointed out before it left your premises.

Dear Mr Marsh,

Thank you for setting out the sequence of events so clearly. I have spoken to the yard staff and their account matches yours: the guard was noted as loose at collection and the assurance given was mistaken. Under those circumstances our policy is unambiguous, and I have authorised a full refund of £268 today.

You are right that you could have pursued the lost working days, and I appreciate that you have not. As a gesture I have added a credit of £80 to your account, valid for twelve months, which you may use against any hire.

I have also asked that our collection checklist be amended so that guards are signed off separately rather than covered by a general condition note. That change is my responsibility, not the yard team’s.

Yours sincerely,
Ruth Adeyemi
Branch Manager
