Join us on 7-8 March 2020 for an inspiring weekend of workshops, optional tutorials and the chance to make new connections with others on the Diploma pathway. The £70 ticket price includes lunch and light refreshments on both days. Please note we're unable to provide accommodation, so you'll need to organise that yourself. Obviously, there are hundreds of accommodation options in London, including a few hostels with small dorms near the venue. Feel free to post accommodation offers/wants on the Facebook event page. If there are any issues/topics you'd particularly like to see covered at the Gathering, please drop Cath a line. Better still, think about offering a workshop!
