Conference venue

The venue for the 2024 NAMHO conference is Kernow Resilience Hub, a conference centre in the heart of Cornwall's mining legacy, just off the A30 in Pool, near Camborne and Redruth. 

The Camborne and Redruth area that surrounds the venu was designated World Heritage Site status in 2006 by UNESCO as part of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape. This accolade means it's recognised as having cultural importance on a global level, like the Acropolis in Athens and the Taj Mahal in India.

Robinson's Shaft

There are a number of mining attractions in the area such as East Pool Mine and King Edward mine, Geevor and Poldark.  Sadly, Heartlands (image above) was going to be the venue but Cornwall County Council pulled the funding and the conference had to be moved a few hundred metres to the current venue, Kernow Resilience Hub.

The venue address is: Kernow Resilience Hub, Highburrow Lane, Pool, Redruth, Cornwall, UK, TR15 3BU (NGR: SW 67474 41190, /// stages.radiated.genius)

Conference Reception will be at there along with all talks, exhibitors, social events and evening catering. The bar will be there too, run by the Hidden Earth bar team.  Please note that the venue has asked us to post this notice:
