Representing WDREUG at other meetings

The User Group encourages members to attend other meetings and to spread the work of the User Group where appropriate. If you need to give a PowerPoint presentation, you can find one on Information for researchers, staff and students. This may be of help. Before you proceed, please contact either the facilitator or the secretary for details which can be found on the contact page.

Members may be approached to take part in other activities. Whilst this is not the main remit of the group please feel free to volunteer if you feel able to do so.
