Parking Advice
We have been advised that parking should be easier to come by as the WISERD Annual Conference is outside of term time.
If you are staying at the accommodation, you can pick up a parking permit on arrival and display this on your dashboard. You are encouraged to leave your cars at the accommodation and walk to the day events, but if this is not possible do not worry.
For those attending during the day, you can print out the parking permit attached here. You can print these in advance, and we will also have some to distribute at registration, whatever works best for you.
The parking permit means you can park in any staff or student parking except for the 2-hour short stay.
If there are any accessibility needs, please advise us. Following this, the University will be able to direct to the nearest accessible spaces or put in some additional reserved spaces.
