Every year ACCEO run a National Rally at which they hold their AGM. Each year a member club undertakes to organise the rally and all members of each member club is invited to attend. This year the organising club the ELDDIS OWNERS CLUB. They say..
'ACCEO and the ELDDIS OWNERS CLUB would like to invite you and your club to the 2024, 41st ACCEO AGM Rally at the West Midlands Showground, Shrewsbury from 12.00 mid-day on Wednesday, the 2nd October to 12.00 mid-day on Monday, the 7th of October 2024.'
'There is a lot being arranged to make this rally interesting and entertaining including live entertainment on the Friday and Saturday evenings. There will also be the usual RNLI stand selling your favourite Christmas cards along with second hand books.
The West Midlands Showground is adjacent to the river Severn and just a few minutes’ walk from the historic Tudor half-timber lined houses of Shrewsbury. The red bricked medieval castle houses the Shropshire Regimental Museum, where military artefacts include uniforms and weaponry. St Chad’s church is defined by its unique circular nave along with St Mary Church that has elaborate stained glass windows. As you can see the area is steeped in history and a very worth while visit.'
Full payment is required at the time of booking (to the LAIKA Owners Club GB). We have been asked to confirm booking prior to 31 August 2024.

Tuscany - Spring 2025
We have had to postpone our anticipated LAIKA factory tour scheduled for the spring of 2024. 2024 is the 60th Anniversary of LAIKA and it has not been possible to accomodate mutually convenient dates with LAIKA in what will be an extremely busy year of events.
We are however delighted to announce that the kind invitation of LAIKA for our members to attend a tour of their state-of-the-art factory in the beautiful Tuscan region of Italy has been rolled over to 2025. Details have still to be worked out and we will be working with LAIKA in the coming weeks to agree definitive dates for this trip.
This trip is likely to take place during April/March 2025 and the dates indicated are merely a placeholder so that we can publish advance details.
