The overwhelming response was yes, but only if the money raised was for DD&G's sustainability. DD&G is now applying a £15 (incl VAT) charge per delegate to attend this conference BUT SAVE £5 BY PAYING BEFORE RATHER THAN AT THE CONFERENCE. All funds raised will be held for future sustainability, specifically to be able to hold future workshops and networking; will not offset any of the costs of this conference; and will not be shared with partners.
