Delegate comments 2010:

"Great work - well done to the organising team".

"A well-done conference."

"I really appreciated the quality proceedings book."

"The 'meet the delegates' sessions are a great ice-breaker for networking. The presentation programme was robust - it was a great change to go to a conference and to be able to sit through a full day of applicable and relevant material."

"The food and music at the Gala Dinner was fabulous - thank you."
