    We're happy for multiple committee members from the same society to attend, however, each committee member must apply separately. For example, if both the president and the treasurer from your society would like to attend, you'll both need to apply.

    Can I get travel reimbursement for the event I’m attending?

However, for some extenuating circumstances, you will be able to apply for some financial support and priority will be given to those most in need. 

    I can no longer make it. Who should I tell? 

    Please email us to let us know if you can no longer attend, so we can offer your place to someone else as this event is usually very popular! Failure to inform us could result in becoming ineligible for future Bright Network events.

    To confirm your place at the event, you may be contacted by call or text by the Bright Network team. Please make sure your details are all correct and up-to-date on your profile.
