The 2010 ICSW Annual General Meeting, will take place on Wednesday 24 March to Friday 26 March 2010 at the Casa del Mar, C. Albareda 1-13, 08004 Barcelona, Spain
This year we are including sessions on MLC 2006, ICSW Strategy and Fundraising in addition to the formal ommittee meeting. There will be an opportunity for you to give a short (10 to 15 minute presentation) on the work of your organisation, focussing on best practice and innovation, during the AGM. Please let Roger Harris (

) , the Executive Director, know if you would like to make a presentation.
Due to the success of port visits at previous meetings, the Port Authority of Barcelona has agreed to sponsor a port visit/boat trip around the port of Barcelona for delegates on Wednesday afternoon. We have also arranged dinner on Thursday evening to be taken at an authentic Spanish restaurant in the Spanish Village. We will allow enough time for delegates to wander around the village before eating.
There will be a Conference Fee of €60 for Members and Affiliates and €75 for guests and visitors.
As we have been unable to provide accommodation in one building this year, we are offering delegates a selection of accommodation at different prices. These will be offered on a first come, first served basis and we hope that those organisations who can afford the more expensive rooms, allow those who cannot, the cheaper accommodation as there is a shortage of hotel rooms
Delegates are requested to meet the cost of their own travel, bed, breakfast and additional costs (laundry, bar etc.). The ICSW will meet the cost of morning & afternoon coffee, lunch and the dinners on Wednesday and Thursday.
For those delegates requiring visas, a letter addressed to your local Spanish Consulate will be provided on request. Please note that it is the delegate’s responsibility to arrange and pay for their own visas.
