I don't think we have the power to bulldoze the entire Lea Valley though :P
Did we or did we not establish that QM was full over the summer do to the OU? (I honestly can't remember/missed it) I have a friend at QM actually, I will try and ask her unless anyone else knows.

That's great Gary. Yes, the main thing is whether the venue can actually hold a conference :-) - so a variety of rooms for hosting keynotes and simultaneous sessions, as well as other rooms/spaces, is a must. Accommodation is preferable to have on-or-adjacent-to-site, but there could be ways around this too (eg. shuttle buses)...

It really does help to have everything on one site. After, that was one of the selling points for the London Olympics 2012.
:D
So, UCL, Queen Mary, UEL (all in London) and many other campus sites are excellent starting points. In fact the Open University take many weeks from the schedule of Queen Mary's facilities for summer schools.

Why not?

When I rang them, and emailed, they had some weeks free. But then later Alison Wheeler said that there were full.
Shall I ask again?

My comment was a 'belief' that would likely be full, not an actual check for 2009

And Queen Mary will have their 2009 schedule open for bookings in 2007?

Should I contact them for a general enquiry for 2009?
