And if you want to find out more about what Brighton has to offer, then the VisitBrighton website is a good place to start.
ACCOMMODATION
This year, the conference venue is a short journey away from the city centre by train (10 minutes to Falmer station) or bus (25 minutes), so we suggest staying in Brighton centre/seafront area so that you’ll have easy access to transport links and the evening social/gala dinner venues, and of course an opportunity to go to the beach!
A range of hotels/B&Bs in Brighton are available to book at preferential rates via our dedicated accommodation booking page (available until 30th May), provided by the lovely people at VisitBrighton.
Additionally, there is a centrally located Premier Inn and a Travelodge (both budget hotel brands of a good standard).
You can also search for other places to stay using sites such as booking.com.
