Additional Information
The Conference venue is the Ormond Building which is adjacent to
Grosvenor Park at the main All Saints Campus of the Manchester
Metropolitan University. The All Saints Campus is prominently located
on the main Oxford Road leading to the city centre, approximately a
mile away.
Accommodation will be in student residences in the Cambridge Halls
which are two minutes from the Conference venue, or in private hotels
in the locality.
The Cambridge Halls of Residence are relatively new student
accommodation which are very convenient but which do not have en-suite
facilities. Participants must bear this in mind when making their
choices. Breakfast for those in the halls of residence is in the Metro
Centre on the other side of the square approximately five minutes
walk.
There are a number of suitable and reasonably priced hotels in the
Manchester area and we include a list with this information. Most of
these are approximately 20 minutes from the Conference venue, the IBIS
Hotel being the nearest.
Manchester is currently a thriving city with a wide range of artistic
and cultural activities and an excellent variety of restaurants.
A trip to The Quarry Bank Mill at Styal, Cheshire is planned for the
afternoon of Thursday 6th September. Would participants please
indicate on the Registration Form whether they wish to attend this and
include the payment in their cheque.
