To all UK Down syndrome researchers and postgraduate students You are cordially invited to the next meeting of the UK Down Syndrome Research Forum to be held at The Sarah Duffen Centre, Portsmouth on the 27th and 28th October, with the support of The Down Syndrome Educational Trust. The meeting will start at 10.30 on 27th October and finish at 3pm on 28th October (these times can be adjusted to suit participants). The Forum is a friendly support group for those working in the area of Down syndrome research. The format, for those new to the Forum, is informal presentations of work in progress by those attending. The group really are very helpful to one another and shared work or useful advice on how to take a project forward have been outcomes from earlier meetings. The Trust will provide buffet lunches on both days and there is no fee for attending. We can advise on bed and breakfast accommodation at reasonable prices but at present the Trust is not able to subsidise travel or accommodation costs, though we would like to be able to and may be able to in the future. If you plan to attend, please let Jo Nye ([log in to unmask]) know as soon as possible, with the title of any presentation that you wish to make and we will then put a programme together. We will of course advertise the meeting on relevant e-mail lists, but please do forward this invitation on to any colleagues who you think would be interested in attending. Looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible in October, Kind regards, Sue Professor Sue Buckley Director for Research and Training The Down Syndrome Educational Trust and Emeritus Professor of Developmental Disability Department of Psychology University of Portsmouth, UK Mailing address The Down Syndrome Educational Trust The Sarah Duffen Centre Belmont Street, Southsea, UK PO5 1NA Contact at Tel. +44 (0)23 9285 5330 Fax +44 (0)23 9285 5320 See websites at www.downsed.org Joanna Nye Research Associate Assistant Editor, DSRP and DSNU -------------------------------------------- E-mail : [log in to unmask] Telephone : +44 (0)23 9285 5330 Facsimile : +44 (0)23 9285 5320 -------------------------------------------- The Down Syndrome Educational Trust -------------------------------------------- A charity, registered in England and Wales, number 1062823. -------------------------------------------- http://www.downsed.org/ http://www.down-syndrome.info/ --------------------------------------------
