03.08.2010 — Invitation to Meeting of National chapters

One of the conclusions of the Forward Look meeting was that IAH centrally could do more to support and encourage the work of the chapters, and chapters could learn from each other’s experiences.  To help develop this further, a meeting of national chapter representatives has been arranged for Thursday 16th September at 16.15. We would like one or two representatives of as many chapters as possible who happen to be in Krakow to attend.  We look forward to seeing you.
