Dear colleagues
With six weeks remaining until UKNOF34 at the Manchester Central Convention
Centre on 21 April, we are pleased to announce that we have now published the
jam packed agenda:
http://uknof.uk/agenda34
Although we webcast and record the presentations, we do sometimes receive
requests not to record or webcast a particular presentation. If you are
interested in all the presentations at UKNOF34, then please attend in person.
[[ REGISTRATION ]]
We currently have 160 delegates from six different countries registered to
attend, so if you would like to join them, please register early. Early Bird
Registrations are still available (until 11.59pm BST on 6 April):
http://uknof.uk/register34
All registrations after Early Bird are on a paid basis.
If any of your colleagues/customers would be interested in attending UKNOF34,
please pass this email on to them.
Note that if you have already registered under Early Bird but would like to pay
for your registration, you may do so via the Standard Registration link on the
Registration page at the link above. We will internally match your details so
you do not end up with duplicate registrations.
Registrations are non-transferrable (except between delegates from Patron
organisations and Advisory Committee organisations)
[[ ACCOMMODATION ]]
We have secured a limited number of rooms at various hotels at negotiated rates
for UKNOF34 delegates. These are all within short walking distance to the
venue, include breakfast and are flexible rates (i.e., cancellations are
allowed prior to arrival in case your plans change).
Special negotiated rates end between 19 March, so it would be prudent to book
early.
Further details are at:
http://uknof.uk/accommodation34
The negotiated rates start at £78.50 for Double/Twin rooms with single
occupancy, include breakfast and VAT and bookings are flexible (ie, may be
cancelled closer to the arrival date - no payment processed on booking,
although your card details will be required to place the reservation).
