Can I come along on the day if I haven’t registered?
Yes, please have a look at the schedule for Saturday events which will give you an idea of what times talks are happening so you can plan when to arrive (please note that this is subject to change).  Please come to the welcome desk where we will be able to register you for the event and give you all of the information that you need for the day. 

For evening events if you haven't registered please do not worry, just report to the registration desk when you arrive and they will register your attendance.

Am I able to bring a guest(s)?
Yes of course, friends and family members are welcome to join you at the event.  Where possible we fit everyone into talks but in the event that there are a lot of attendees we occasionally ask that just the registered person and one guest attend the talks.
