There will be talks on surgical options for KC, contact lenses, the work of the eye bank, corneal donation. And lots of time to ask questions and meet other people with KC. If you're interested, do e-mail me and I'll send you more details and a booking form.
Looking forward to seeing lots of our members there!
Anne

I had a consultation with Mr Brahma yesterday at MREH. He mentioned the conference to me and indicated that the take up on tickets was low - how many people have booked to date?

Will the event be professionally audio visually recorded and put on a dvd?

These dvds could then be sold at a reasonable cost for those unable to make the event and it would also generate funds for future events/KC support projects
:idea:

Great idea on the video

I doubt I will make it up. (From West London)
Options were about £160 for flight
Train £82 return but means a 5am start and return after midnight
Car option is a 4 hour (minimum) drive each way

A DVD of the sessions would be appreciated

Regards
Ian

I've just checked National Rail and there are advance single tickets for £26 on the 6:55, 7:20, 7:35 and 8:00 (£19 on the 6:36) trains to Manchester and some £19 tickets for the return. So you could do Euston to Manchester return for £45.
