Dear All,
Not quite a full scientific agenda but nevertheless one that I hope you
will find professionally stimulating.
The meeting will be held in the centre of Leeds as indicated on the
programme below. Whilst public transport to Leeds is good and the venue
is only 10 minutes walk from the train station, public parking at the
centre is not good. Public car parking in Leeds can be found at
www.leeds.gov.uk then by clicking the links Transport and Streets and
Parking. I have not included the map as an attachment as I know that not
all email systems will allow attachments.
Finally please will you forward this email to members who you know do
not view the mailbase.
