We normally have two FACT conferences a year, (except in a pandemic), in Spring and Autumn. The Autumn conference is combined with our Annual General Meeting when elections to the National Committee are held and the Committee reports to the membership.

We have had many well known speakers at FACT conferences over the years, such as the BBC ‘Rough Justice’ presenter David Jessel and Daniel Janner QC.

Other speakers include our former president, Sister Frances Dominica OBE, DL, FRCN and our our current president, Harvey Proctor.

Other speakers include many notable academics and experts in the field of law including: Dr Dennis Eady (of the Cardiff Innocence Project), Naomi-Ellen Speechley, Dr Ros Burnett, Professor Felicity Goodyear-Smith, Dr Stephanie Roberts, Professor Carolyn Hoyle, Professor Terry Thomas and Dr Mai Sato, 

Dr Kevin Felstead from the now disbanded British False Memory Society is an expert on false memories and has also contributed. Other eminent recent speakers include Dr Lawrence Patihis PhD, a socio-cognitive psychologist with key interests in memory reliability and false memories; and Claire Anderson, a Partner in leading Criminal Defence firm, ABV Solicitors who are instructed in the most serious, complex and often high profile cases in the UK.
