Questions
About this menu.
How is a conference priced?
By session. Add the tea and coffee, the breaks and the lunch you want, each priced per person, and the day adds up on one itemised quote.
Can you keep to our programme?
Yes. Send us the agenda and we time every service to it, with the food ready before each break starts.
What about delegates with dietary needs?
Every session has vegetarian options and the bowl food has vegan ones. Send us the dietaries with the final numbers, or use our dietaries link so each delegate fills in their own.
