            Bookings now open!


            It’s now less than a year until we can all ‘meet
            again’ at The Hayes for the first CRT retreat since
            2019! It has been a tough four years, that’s for
            sure, but we are hoping that you’ve already saved
            the date in your diary for Wednesday 6th and
            Thursday 7th September and that you are looking
            forward to it already.
            Many of you have kindly given us your feedback
            as to what has worked well in the past and
            equally what you found to be less important, and
            we are trying to come up with something that will
            please as many people as possible (while noting
            the old saying that you can’t please all of the   Hayes Conference Centre
            people all of the time!). We intend to make sure
            that it is a bumper event that all can enjoy while   per person if they do this before the end of 31st
