As we come to the close of the year, I would like to wish every reader all the very best.😊

W2D2022 – Important update

Here I am with some news on the organization of the Third WordstoDeeds Conference, venue Jesus College in Cambridge, UK.

As most of you will know, the Omicron variant has caused a lot of frenzy – particularly with the media – and the forecasts are that in late January it will still be around.

I do not feel that we can reliably maintain the planned dates, as it is hard to predict different countries’ policies, so, once we have new options for dates from Jesus College there will be a planning Zoom meeting with registered delegates so that we can come to a joint decision regarding new dates in the UK summer period. I will therefore post updated conference dates after that meeting, before the end of December.
 
Hopefully this will mean that even more of you will be able to attend!
