| Sara Sheridan and Marion Sinclair networking- 'Let me give you my card' |
There were over 100 delegates attending the conference which was open to all, not just members of the Society.
It was a fascinating day with lots of great speakers who were generous with their advice and happy to answer questions. We started off with author Sara Sheridan who as always was energetic and enthusiastic in her approach.
