Newsflash: #Manchester Stakeholder Conference to be held on Monday 4th March. MCFly urges you not to bother booking annual leave NOW.

You may have read on the official website “manchesterclimate.com”  that the Stakeholder Conference would be held on Friday 8th March.  This was wrong. (1)

You may have read in a report to Manchester City Council that the Stakeholder Conference would be held on Friday 8th March.  This was wrong.

It will be held on Monday 4th March. (2)

For what it’s worth, the last one was a bit of a catastrophe, and the group “responsible” appears only now to have started serious work on the next one very recently (see our recent interview with the chair of the group here.)

So we are not holding our breath about this one being any less catastrophic. And so we are not encouraging anyone who has limited annual leave left to spend it on this.  Doubtless some masochists will attend, and will provide those too busy or sane to do so reports.

You may be wondering

  • Is it half day or whole day?
  • When will you be able to sign up?
  • How will  you be able to sign up?
  • When will you know if you are going to be allowed to attend?

All good questions, which as of yet do not have answers.
