Dear Members, Associates and Friends
This year our Annual Conference will be in Leamington Spa and South West and Midland Region are looking forward to welcoming you in October. Conference is the main focus of NCW policy-making and provides an important forum for NCW and NCYW members to meet and debate together. It promises to be a busy, absorbing and interesting weekend where your voice will count. If you cannot join us for the full weekend, why not join us for Friday afternoon, or Saturday.
Woodland Grange, situated off the A452 in the northern outskirts of Leamington, is set it in its own attractive grounds with ample car parking. It is a light, spacious and modern conference centre with good hotel facilities. All bedrooms are ensuite. It is easily accessible by car via the M40, M42, M6 and M69. A short taxi ride from the station, there are direct trains from London Marylebone or Paddington, Reading, Newcastle, and Darlington. Change at Birmingham New Street from Cheltenham and Leicester, or change at Derby from Nottingham. Lunch on Friday is not included in the Conference fee, but the restaurant will be open for refreshments should you require them on arrival.
The Conference will begin on Friday 6th October with the NCYW Intergenerational event at 2.30pm. Registration will be open from 1pm.
Bookings using the attached form must be returned to the Darlington office by 28th August. No booking will be confirmed until full payment has been received. If you plan to arrive on Thursday, or would like to stay on Sunday night please book using the form overleaf.
