Apologies to those who have already seen this message.

However, whilst we have your attention, we would encourage anyone
who intends to come to either the workshops or conference, to register

roadshow, we need to specify numbers for the books and lunches -
and you wouldn't want to miss out on them!

So please contact us soon.
