Travel

Useful information can be obtained here.

Note that Canterbury has two train stations, Canterbury East and Canterbury West. The University can be reached by a pleasant half hour walk from Canterbury West, however, it might be more convenient to take a taxi to the University. If the taxi driver doesn't know the entrance to the School of Mathematics, then ask to stop at the bus stop Darwin College. The School of Mathematics is right behind it.

If you are traveling by Eurostar from Belgium or France, please note that the closest station is Ashford International. There are regular trains between Ashford and Canterbury (West). The journey takes approximately 20 min. Note that your journey Ashford-Canterbury is not covered by your Eurostar ticket. So you will also need to buy a ticket Ashford-Canterbury.

Accommodation

Accommodation will be on campus. The price for a single ensuite bedroom is around £40 per night. We have some limited funding available to help those who need help to cover their accommodation expenses.  Registration is now closed.

Registration fees and Conference Dinner

The conference dinner will take place on Thursday 29 August. The menu is available here.
 
There will also be a pizza dinner at Pinocchio on Wednesday 28 August. The menu is here.

We have limited funds available to subsidize accommodation for participants based in France, Germany and UK. Any remaining money will be used to subsidize Conference Dinner expenses. As a result, depending on the number attending, the cost of the dinner should be between £15 and £30, and so the registration fees (covering both dinners and Thursday lunch) will be between £20 and £70 (payable in cash or by cheque at registration on Wednesday 28 August). You will get a receipt, of course!
