Book Stall

This year we would like to try and institute a Book Stall with a difference, in that the books will not be for sale but for browsing only.

We would like you to bring a book or two, (or 3 or 4!) to the Conference. The book you bring might be related or unrelated to Psychotherapy but it would have been important or influential for you. We would like you to attach a card to the cover stating in a few words why this book made an impact. Please also write down your name on the back of the same card so we know who the book belongs to and can return it to you at the end of the conference.

We hope this might become a regular feature of the conference, and we look forward to seeing if this idea takes off, and hearing from you what you think. It’s easy to purchase books nowadays, but this is a perfect opportunity for us all to share some of what has inspired or provoked us over the years.

Please note that this meeting qualifies for 9 CPD points subject to approval by the individual member’s Peer Group
