3. If you are not able to attend a session that you were very interested in and the information cannot be made available on line it may be possible to organise a one-to-one with a relevant officer or a personal development session; if you are interested please contact Marie Gondlach (details below).
4. Pre-booking is essential. If you do not book 3 working days in advance, catering (if applicable) cannot be guaranteed, nor parking or seating at the venue.
5. There is a cost to providing any development event. If you are unable to attend a previously booked course, please let Marie Gondlach know so that the place can be offered to others.
