Full Institute Events Listing

Day one takes place on 7th December. Day two takes place on 9th December.

The course is built around a mock inquiry for a major urban extension with its core purpose to develop the skills required in preparing and delivering robust and precise proofs of evidence.

Delegates will also gain experience of the additional pressures imposed by speaking in public and dealing with cross-examination, and not forgetting the importance of making arguments clear and simple to understand so that all those present at the inquiry are on an ‘equal footing’.

Speaker: Peter Fellows

Shoreham Airport – now officially Brighton City Airport, claims to be the oldest in the UK, with records of flights dating back to 1910. It has played an important part in the history of flying in the UK, from the early pioneering days to the romance of the inter-war years, to its role in WWII. Its Art Deco terminal building is a noted listed building. Peter Fellows held a private pilot’s licence for 25 years and has been a volunteer guide at the airport for the past 26 years, so he is well equipped to give us his insights into this piece of aviation history on our doorstep.

• Mike Yarwood, Managing Director Loss Prevention, TT Club

This CILT Freight Forwarding Forum event will appeal to anyone operating in, affected by, or interested in supply chain operations. Including shippers, buyers, forwarders, carriers, logistics professionals, academics and students and is joint with the CILT(UK) London Region.

The annual supply chain risk event is traditionally a joint event with the Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply and is consistently well supported by both institutes’ members, attracting a wide range of practitioner and academic speakers, who have been educating, informing and entertaining delegates for 11 years.

The 12th anniversary of this unique event, although virtual, promises to be just as rewarding for delegates. With speakers exploring the development of supply chains risk and the actions taken to address the increasing threat of criminalisation and theft. 

From an operations background, with some of the biggest names in the UK haulage industry, Mike Yarwood joined Thomas Miller in 2010 to oversee loss prevention and risk management for The TT Club. In addition to supporting the mutual insurers members, Mike works alongside a host of professional institutes, trade associations, industry bodies and NGO’s to identify and promote best practice in reducing risk in the supply chain. Mike will talk about the Supply Chain Risk Industry Partnership and how it promotes best practice. He will also consider trends in supply chain risk for UK, European, and Global supply chains.

Michael Dawber is an intelligence officer in the National Vehicle Crime Intelligence Service, better known as NaVCIS. Mike’s team investigate criminal gangs threatening the haulage industry, sharing intelligence with law-enforcement agencies and the international freight industry. He will outline NaVCIS’ origins and how they partner with industry to prevent crime, pursue criminal gangs and protect supply chains.

Speaker: Chris Heaps, Chairman, Helston Railway Preservation Society as well as former Traffic Commissioner and former Chairman of the London Bus Museum at Brooklands

Joint South East and South West Region Event

The Helston Railway partially re-opened from 2010 and extends over about 1.5 miles Chris will tell us some of the earlier history of the line which closed to passengers in 1962 and freight in 1964 as well as progress on reopening and events since then including a number of prestigious awards.

Chris’s links with the railway date from before its opening in 1887, as his great-great-great grandfather attended the ceremony of the cutting of the first sod in 1882 and the opening of the line in 1887, and of course the customary celebratory lunches thereafter.

A second and enlarged edition of his book about the railway (delayed by Covid) should be published in May 2022 and will include details of the bus route from Helston to The Lizard which was the first railway-operated motor bus service in the country when it started in 1903.

Speaker: Dr Tony Stead – Cholsey & Wallingford Railway

Cholsey and Wallingford Railway is an ex-GWR branchline closed to passenger traffic in 1958, parcels in 1965 and finally as a freight line serving ABM Maltings in 1981. From 1981 it was taken over by a Preservation Society, running the first heritage trains in 1985. The Station, located on the site of the old Maltings, has not benefitted from an original purpose-built station building and has, in the words of a recent article in 'Heritage Railway' 'For most of its preserved life, Wallingford Station has been, to be frank, a dump.'

The arrival and restoration of the Maidenhead Canopy has, however, totally transformed the site. Erected at Maidenhead, possibly as early as 1871 according to Wells (1982), the canopy, or train shed, became a problem for Network Rail and the Cross Rail project but surely a Brunellian structure of this age (it was present as Broad Gauge trains passed by) should be preserved? The talk will consider how the canopy seemed to avoid being listed and how Cholsey and Wallingford Railway sought permission to relocate it to Wallingford. In theory, once disassembled it should have been easy to reassemble such a piece of railway history but in the eventual haste to remove it all considerations of its future became lost and the method of removal involved predominantly a gas axe, chain saw and no documentation. Faced with such carnage how does one fund the restoration, repair and reconstruction of such an important building?

The steps taken by Cholsey and Wallingford Railway, funded by the Railway Heritage Trust, to establish the age, construction methods and decoration will be discussed and the benefits of such projects to a heritage railway outlined both in terms of visitor appeal and volunteer morale.

The Thames Valley Group are always keen to enjoy a relaxed informal environment in their events but unfortunately cannot move to the pub after the presentation as normal. Participants are therefore encouraged to bring the beverage of their choice to the webinar.

Speaker: Professor David Cebon, Cambridge University

The event will appeal to all transport and logistics practitioners and students who are interested in Net Zero and the challenges decarbonising heavy goods vehicles.

Long-haul road freight is said to be one of the ‘difficult to decarbonise’ sectors of the economy. Heavy vehicles require large amounts of power for long periods of time, making battery electric technologies challenging. There are two main alternatives to battery electric vehicles: fuel-cell electric vehicles powered by hydrogen and ‘electric roads’ technology: like electric trains or trolley buses. The heavy vehicle industry is currently divided over which technology to back. The government is planning to spend £500m on demonstration trials to help it decide which way to go. This talk will consider the basic numbers associated with these issues.

Professor David Cebon is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering in Cambridge University and a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering.  He is Director of the Centre for Sustainable Road Freight and leads Cambridge University Engineering Department’s Transport Research Group and the Department's research theme 'Energy, Transport and Urban Infrastructure'.  Professor Cebon’s research covers the mechanical, civil, and materials aspects of road transport engineering.  He has authored or co-authored more than 150 peer reviewed papers on the dynamics, safety, and environmental performance of heavy goods vehicles.  He has a strong current focus on energy systems for road freight.
