How about someone with knowledge of the effect of licensing laws through out the years?

I'm a member of Lunesdale CAMRA which is a bit outside the Accy area but a couple of our members have given talks in the past but mainly on Lancaster subjects. You haven't said where your conference will be and there may be other CAMRA branches with more appropriate connections. For contact details of branches in the West Pennines region see
CAMRA - Campaign for Real Ale
I assume seeing the title of your conference it may be focusing on Preston and the temperance movement?
Good luck!
