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.
