Dear All,

Further to our recent discussions, here is the programme.

The normal price is £300.  We have agreed to offer the course to participants from Eastern Europe for £100 (approx. 115 Euros at present rates of exchange).

On the Thursday night before is the exam orientation course.  This would be a good way for your trainees to have viva practice with English speakers.  The price for this is £30 for anyone attending the course (normal price £50).

Getting to Manchester

There are flights from Budapest (Ryanair, from HUF 24,000, and Jet2) and from Gdansk, Krakow, Rzeszow, Warsaw and Wroclaw (also Ryanair) and Krakow again (EasyJet).

The conference is at the Manchester Conference Centre.  It has rooms from approximately £85 per night bed and breakfast.  Probably there are similar economical options.

Please let me know if you need any further info.  I am happy for any of your trainees to email for further info.

With kindest regards and many thanks for distributing the information.
