We have two host venues for AIM Conference 2026. We’re delighted to be hosted by Ushaw Historic House, Chapels and Gardens for the daytime conference sessions. We’ll be visiting Beamish, the Living Museum of the North for our evening social events.
Ushaw Historic House, Chapels and Gardens
Set within rolling parkland just outside Durham, Ushaw is a place where history, culture and people come together to create experiences beyond belief. Once a Catholic seminary, Ushaw is now a registered charity operating as a vibrant heritage destination and creative hub. With its remarkable architecture, internationally significant collections, and a warm, inclusive approach, Ushaw offers something genuinely distinctive within the North East’s cultural landscape.
