The Gonference witl be held on Sat/Sun January 29th/30th, 1971 at Imperial College Student Union. The proposed agenda is attached and will be voted on at the start of the Conferences. Groups proposing amendments should send then in. Papers will be circulated as they are produced. The 25p attendence fee will off-set the production of the papers already allocated from the Sditorial Board and the meeting of SWs at Skegness, and these papers will be free to members. Other papers should be produced by groups and the cost resovered out of 4 small extra charge we will be making for that pumpose (such charge dependin on the number of papers produced), Groups without facilities to produce papers should contact us. &ttendence We hope that all groups will bring the maximum number of people to the confernce, To help them acheive this, we make the following suggestions: they investigate the possibilities of q group fare (for ten or more) 6r hire a small van (like the one LSWG bumps its way to WNCC meetings in!) To help those ciming long distances, we propose to heold a social on the evening of the Conference, all profits to be used for off-setting fares. Children ~ there will be a creche, but we hope that where children cannot be brought (perhaps because of the cost of fares) then local groups will discuss the problem collectively. We for our part will be calling upon loeal IMG branches to assist in any way possible,’ by offering to baby-sit, etc. let us Rnow of difficulties. The Trad _e-Union Panel Groups should now contact women militants whom they have been working with and invit them to the conference. The question of their fares should be discussed locally and difficulties referred to us. (Why not hold a special pre-conference social to raise money for everyone's fares?) We need too many names, as from previous experience sbme are bound to fail to materialise, University Grovis Because of the 'Day ef Action' coming only a week before our conference, groups based in universities may feel dubious of being able to mobilise their full membership. We propose to help such groups by coming to meetings in theweck after the day of action, and before the conference. If your group needs such a meeting, contact us.
The Form—filling Bit We are sending you several copies of this so that you can send in more forms es attendence from your branch goes up. Please send in the 25p as soon as possirle to enable us to meet costs as we go along.
