Things you need to know
Manchester is very easy to reach by air, rail, coach and by road.
Suggestions about travel to the venue, hotels etc will be given here very soon and will also be sent to everyone who makes a booking.
Last year, because of the number of people wishing to book, it was necessary to have a waiting list.
This year priority will be given to people who did not attend last year's event - though of course it is hoped that there will be enough room for everyone who wants to come.
If necessary there will again be a waiting list in case of cancellations.
The full programme will be announced when it is finalised,
and you are welcome to suggest items that you would like to be included, if possible.

You might wish to stay for a day or two longer in Manchester to visit the city and the surrounding area.
More information about this will appear here in due course.
