Dear ESU Members

The Edinburgh Conference is getting closer! This is going to be the biggest international gathering in the ESU’s 90-year history, and we hope that you and your members are planning to be a part of it.

When we wrote to you last, we gave details of the photographic and essay competitions we are organising, and told you about the Commemorative Yearbook that we hope to publish to coincide with the Conference. This is just a reminder that the submission deadline for these is 31st March, so please do make sure that you get your entries in to us by the end of next month. I also attach a questionnaire for the Yearbook, and would be grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete this and return it to us.

If you want further information on the competitions or the Yearbook, please do not hesitate to contact us here in Edinburgh, by email, telephone or post. We would be delighted to answer any queries you may have.

A brief reminder also about booking for the Conference (postal booking form attached). The full delegate rate is £300 sterling if you book before 15th May. If you register after that date, the rate increases to £330, so do remind your members of this deadline. The sooner you book, the less it costs!

Finally, I attach an updated draft programme for your information. Fuller information is available on the Conference website, where you can also book your place and accommodation online.

Warmest regards

John
