Some less exciting bits we have to make you aware of:

  • A member of the ESSS committee will be taking photographs of the event/attendees throughout the day - if you would like to not be included in the photographs - please approach any of the committee members on the day.
  • Attendees shall be responsible for orderly conduct and that nothing shall be done which will constitute a breach of the law. ESSS will hold the attendee responsible for any damage, injury, and losses caused by the attendee.
