What the Organisers Thought

The above will be taken into account for next year's event, but we're pleased that the vast majority of people found the afternoon most enjoyable and useful. The overwhelming number of people wanting stalls meant that, unfortunately, no room could be provided for networking. However, people reported they did have lots of productive conversations with other campaigners. It would have been good if more public were in attendence but it's hard to see what more could have been done (adverts were put in Big Issue and fliers distributed through several outlets). And it was much more hard work than originally envisioned!
