‘Pioneering tomorrow’s estates’ The Wales Regional Branch Conference 2025, held at the Celtic Manor Resort Hotel near Newport from 7-8 May, brought together healthcare estates professionals from across the region under the theme ‘Pioneering the Estates for Tomorrow.’ The event opened with a welcome address from IHEEM CEO, Pete Sellars (pictured), followed by a powerful keynote speech from Judith Paget, Director General for Health and Social Services and NHS Wales Chief Executive, who acknowledged the significant challenges facing the NHS estate, and emphasised the importance of quality and safety in every aspect of healthcare delivery. Throughout the two-day conference, a cohesive programme of insightful presentations addressed critical themes – including design and the built environment, operational management, the challenges of Net Zero, and new technologies and diagnostics, with the joint aim of providing delivery of modern, patient-centred environments. The Gala Awards Dinner took place on the evening of 7 May in the Augusta
Suite at the Celtic Manor Golf Club (see also pages 23-26), and had a celebratory feel. After-dinner speaker, rugby legend Sir Gareth Edwards CBE, shared some memorable stories from his life and career, while seven awards were presented to individuals and organisations from across Wales to recognise outstanding achievements in the sector.
