Course details & Exhibition Opportunity

The Leeds course in Clinical Nutrition will run for the 30th year in September 2012. The course aims to provide a thorough grounding in all aspects of Clinical Nutrition and will appeal to Clinicians, Dietitians, Hospital Pharmacists, Nursing Staff, Nutritionists and others with interests in patient nutrition.

Previous courses have been extremely successful and well received by around 50-100 delegates annually who have attended from all over the UK and from overseas. The participants are mainly doctors, medical practitioners, pharmacists, dietitians, senior nurses and nutritionists.

2012 Programme

A full programme with detailed lecture descriptions can be viewed in the left hand column along with the course leaflet giving further details on the background and course content.

Exhibition

As in previous years, there will be a small exhibition of related products on days two and three of the course. There is a large purpose built suite with excellent facilities for display stands and opportunities to meet and interact with delegates.

Exhibition stands/space is available to book as a 2 day package (Wednesday and Thursday) and the fee for companies wishing to mount a display, including lunch for 2 representatives is:

2 Day Exhibition space (Wednesday 5th and Thursday 6th September, £525)

*Due to capacity at the venue, exhibition places are limited so we would advise booking your stand as early as possible to avoid disappointment.

Spaces are still available and companies wishing to book should complete the online booking process through our secure Online Store in the left hand column.

Sponsorship of a guest lecture is also available at a cost of £1250 and entitles your company to an exhibition stand and participation in the course for two people, saving over £1,000 (although attendance at social events is charged separately). As a sponsor, your company name and logo would appear on the revised programme and course materials distributed to all participants attending this event. The logo can also be included on our designated Clinical Nutrition webpage with a link to your company webpage.
