Comments from attendees of the 2022 Symposium!

WOW, WOW and WOW again!!! Fabulous. Huge success. Amazing. Thank you to all you wonderful people who made such a success of the weekend. The hard work is truly appreciated by those of us on the receiving end of your endeavours. Always smiling, always cheerful, always making us very happy. THANK YOU ALL.

Sally

Thank you for organizing an absolutely thrilling and very educative (even somewhat overwhelming) Symposium! I have learnt a lot over the past days and got to know an absolutely lovely community. I hope to see everyone else again in Glastonbury next year.

Lars

Heaven only knows how much organising this event takes but you absolutely nailed it!  I’ve been to so many conferences/events over the last 10 years and nothing has come near; I had high expectations but those expectations were blown out of the water. I am sure I will be buzzing for a month! Amazing weekend – I loved every minute and am looking forward to next year.

Duncan

Thoroughly enjoyed it, a wonderful day. Will do the whole weekend next year.

Sarah and Mark

What a great symposium and so well executed. You did, yet again, a great job with great content. I’m really glad you decided to put this year back on the agenda and it really does need to be here to stay. I’m already looking forward to seeing what you do next year.

Graham

Thank you for a wonderful packed schedule of interesting talks and a lovely venue. I was particularly taken by the eclectic mix and open-minded views freely expressed. Looking forward to next year’s Symposium with gratitude and appreciation.

Emma

I just wanted to thank you for putting together such a fantastic Symposium – has to have been one of the best. The speakers were of such a high calibre.

Kim

Thanks for creating such a powerful event and for all you contribute to our world.

Ian

A big thank you to your organised conference. Well done.

David

From some of our attendees

What a splendid conference. Excellent organisation, good, varied speakers and subjects and so good to see old friends again.

Lucy

I would like to thank you for your wonderful event. It’s been a unique experience for me.

Konstantinos

A big thank you to all the organisers of the best alternative symposium on the planet and not to forget the most evolved audience on the planet. Bless you all.

Judy and Pete

I just wanted to reach out and say a massive thank you for putting on such a fantastic event… It was my first time attending so I was naive as to what to really expect – but HOW friendly was everyone?! Plus the quality of the speakers was superb and the content equally so. No, I didn’t agree with everything, no, I didn’t understand everything either and, yes, I came home with more questions than answers, but nonetheless I loved it from beginning to end! So a hearty thank you to one and all. See you next year and thanks again.

Neil

Another brilliant Symposium. Thank you to all the organisers, behind the scenes techies and speakers for the 28th year of information sharing. Many blessings to you all.

Sally

An email to say how much I appreciated the [new] early finish on Saturday evening. It was so nice to be able to relax, share a bottle of wine and a nice meal and not have to curtail it to go back in!

Anjalee

And from some of our speakers

It was a great weekend, the venue was second to none and the audience was massive! …I was extremely impressed by the event/organisation and when I walked into the full room to do my talk I was totally taken aback; I have never experienced a venue or an atmosphere like it.

Michael Feeley
