Day 1 timings: The NHC team will be at the hotel reception on Tuesday morning from 10am until lunchtime to welcome you to the Conference. There is an optional morning session starting at 10:30 to discuss approaches to strategic mitigation. This is to make the most of the time available while people are arriving from further afield.

Day 2 timings: Coach transport will leave from the venue. Please meet in the hotel car park for 9am. There are two versions of the same field trip, so it doesn’t matter which coach you board.
