Dear UCC list owner,
I would appreciate it if you could forward this message on to your group's
members. We would be delighted to have you join us at our conference this
year and I hope that you will find the programme of interest.
I expect to have a few further updates to go out between now and the
conference advertising the keynote speakers and providing more information
regarding the tutorials. If you or your group does not wish to receive
these emails, please let me know.
All the best,
Jacinta
