7. Feedback and Learning Report

As part of accepting a bursary place, attendees agree to provide a short written report and feedback following the event. This helps us understand the impact of the programme and supports future educational funding.

 

8. Photography and Media

Group photographs and general event imagery will be taken during the symposium. By accepting a bursary ticket, attendees agree that these images may be used by the Beth Chatto Education Trust for promotional, educational and archival purposes.
