Due to a high number of first time attenders at this year the conference we
are trying something new.
It has been suggested that we start a ‘buddy’ scheme for first timers to try to
make them feel more welcome.
We are looking for volunteers to make contact at the conference reception
with the newcomers, and just to make it known that you are available for help
and advice and maybe just to check back with them over the weekend.
I’m sure we can all remember feeling a bit nervous at our first conference or
course and how much easier it is when you know there is a friendly contact to
hand if you need one.
If you would be interested in helping us with this please email me off list and I
will organise the rest. We would like to have enough volunteers to be able to
pair people from similar institutions.
