Tea/coffee will be provided on arrival but attendees will have to make their own arrangements for lunch. There are plenty of eateries nearby. There is plentiful, free, parking in the school playground. The school is a few minutes walk from Warwick railway station.

If the Covid 19 rules prevent us meeting in real life the conference will be switched to Zoom. Hopefully this will not be necessary.

The cost is £5 payable on the door but prior booking is essential. To register email Brian Southwell on brian.southwell@yahoo.co.uk
