Hey all,<br>
<br>
Anyone up for going to this? Should be quite interesting! Sheffield
people are you already planning to attend? Seems if you aren't it
would be wise if the slots went to you..<br>
<br>
There is also an opportunity for 10 people to attend the
co-operative congress in Birmingham towards the end of June. There
aren't any travel costs provided but if we organise for it early
trains shouldn't be too steep. More info on that when it is
confirmed by Co-operatives UK - would be good to have a good spread
of people attending though and brum lot will be able to put people
up for the night.<br>

Cheers,<br>
<br>
Sean.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am writing to invite your organisations
to co-lead a
workshop on “How young people are re-vitalising the
cooperative movement”
with Sheffield student housing co-operatives as a key case
study. Please find
conference flyer attached. We are seeking diversity in
conference speakers –
it would be great if you could nominate a clear speaker who is
female and/or
from an ethnic minority. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">160
people
attended the first conference Ways Forward for the
Cooperative
Movement, earlier this year – with very
high quality participation. We expect higher attendance
this time, as events and responses continue to unfold. The
conference is
being held the day before the Cooperative Group’s Annual
General Meeting,
when many co-operators will be in Manchester.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">We
have
kept costs to a minimum, as many participants will be paying
out of
their own pockets. Two speakers from Students for
Co-operation are
offered travel expenses (if known in advance), a free place
and a warm welcome.

are
also free conference places for volunteers under 24. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
