    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>
    <div class="moz-forward-container"><br>
      Cheers,<br>
      <br>
