The organising committee is delighted to announce that broadcaster Cally Beaton will be this year’s after-dinner speaker at the IOR Annual Dinner. 

Known for her appearances on QI, The Apprentice: You’re Fired, and Radio 4’s The Museum of Curiosity, Cally brings a unique mix of humour, energy and business insights.

Taking place on 12 February 2026 at the Hilton London Bankside, the IOR Annual Dinner is a long‑established highlight of the RACHP calendar, offering delegates the chance to network, build new connections, and meet with colleagues and friends from across the industry.

More than just a social occasion, the dinner plays a vital role in supporting the IOR’s work. Guests’ contributions help fund initiatives that strengthen the future of the RACHP sector, including initiatives focused on training, skills development, and education.

A limited number of individual places are still available, and organisers will aim to accommodate seating preferences wherever possible. To secure your place, visit the IOR Annual Dinner page.
