<br>
We've been contacted by one of the sponsors of our conference in April about companies who aren't sponsors handing out promotional material, in particular branded t-shirts etc. While everyone likes getting a bag full of free merch, we ask that attendees respect
the financial commitment that our sponsors make towards funding the conference. They cover almost half the cost and in return they get the right to promote themselves to all of you who attend.<br>
<br>
If you are not a sponsor please do not distribute swag to delegates at the conference.<br>
<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
David, on behalf of the Board<br>
