We have put together an interesting professional education programme for the day including presentations by some very eminent experts.  We have worked with the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Southampton and the Wessex O & G Consultants to create a packed day, with topics ranging from “The Vagina Dialogues” to “Training Opportunities in Europe”.  There should be something for everyone within the programme, plus the opportunities during the day to meet up with colleagues from elsewhere in the region.

The Call for Abstracts is an important part of the event, providing us with oral and poster presentations following review.  Please note the EXTENDED deadline of 28th August and let us have your submission; all are welcome.  For more information, please refer to the Call for abstracts page.

Winchester will not just offer us an impressive and historic backdrop for our daytime event; we have also booked up part of the Guildhall for the SWOGS 2013 Dinner on the evening of 4th October.  Do come and join your SWOGS colleagues to share this dinner.  You can book your place alongside your Registration booking.  

If you need overnight accommodation, you can also book a bedroom at a special rate for the SWOGS group when you make your Registration booking.  We have secured bedrooms at the Conference venue which will be very convenient.

Finally, it would be remiss of me not to mention all the things there are to do in the locality in and around Winchester.  You may like to bring your family and enjoy the weekend here.    Whether you like history, literature, gardens, animals, shops or the great outdoors, we have something here for you.  This website link gives more information, to tempt you: http://www.visitwinchester.co.uk/site/things-to-do 

As you will see, we have Jane Austen’s house, the Sir Harold Hillier Gardens, Marwell Zoo and the New Forest all within very easy reach.

So, how can you refuse?  Do come and joins us for SWOGS 2013.
