The opening session will start at 9:30 a.m. The day will include presentations and discussions, morning coffee, lunch, Dealers’ Book Sale and afternoon tea, concluding by 6:30 p.m. (when the bar opens!) with the Conference Dinner at 7:00.
Sunday
There will be an ecumenical service at 9:00 a.m. in the Wills Hall chapel for any who wish to attend before sessions start, and the conference will conclude with afternoon tea at 4:30 p.m.
For those who stay over, the conference will end after breakfast on Monday, 15th August.
Accommodation
Two types of room are available; en suite rooms in the new building or larger standard rooms in the older part, where “houses” of twelve bedrooms share two showers, two baths and three toilets.
Please Note:
- All rooms are single.
- This is student accommodation so the rooms are basic, but functional.
- There are two adapted en suite rooms (though not to current DDA standards).
- The standard rooms all involve some steps.
Cancellations
Should you have to cancel your booking a refund (less £30 for administration costs) will be given if cancelled before the end of 2021. Up to April 2022 a 50% refund will be given but we can offer no refund for cancellations made after 1st May 2022. You may wish to get travel insurance – annual policies may cover this, so do check.
Emergency Contact
We are required by Wills Hall to supply them with details for each attendee of someone who may be contacted in the event of an emergency. This information is kept securely and is destroyed after the conference.
