<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: #FFFFFF; ">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.
<div class="me90006moz-forward-container"><br />
Cheers,<br />
<br />
Sean.<br />

<p class="me90006MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="me90006MsoNormal">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. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="me90006MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="me90006MsoPlainText"><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.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="me90006MsoPlainText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="me90006MsoPlainText"><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. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="me90006MsoPlainText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="me90006MsoPlainText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">There are also free conference places for volunteers under 24. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
