Dear Andrew,
Please could you pass on my apologies for the strange formatting in the earlier email; I am not sure what caused
this. I have pasted the details again below and would suggest that recipients delete the earlier message.
I also include the programme below.
As mentioned the deadline for the CCRAC Conference Bursaries is tomorrow, Monday 14th. However as we still have
several places available, we can allow a little bit of flexibility with this.
There are also some standard tickets (without bursary) available for the conference, but I would advise to book
early to avoid disappointment:https://www.rct.uk/event/conference-russia-courtly-gifts-and-cultural-diplomacy-03-
2019#/
