Did You Knows

On 19 March 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Dorothy Tarrant, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the first female British professor of Greek, Dorothy Tarrant, analysed Plato's style to conclude that he did not write the Socratic dialogue on beauty? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Dorothy Tarrant. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Dorothy Tarrant), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Disability

People with disabilities are welcome at this event. Senate House is wheelchair accessible, although there are some limitations due to it being a listed building. This means that although wheelchair users and those with reduced mobility are able to access all necessary facilities it is not always easy for them to do so in a fully independent way.

If you need a disabled parking space, hearing loop or other facility, or have other questions or concerns about access please do contact Claire in advance so that we can find a solution (claire.millington(at)kcl.ac.uk).

Child care

This meet up is committed being as inclusive as possible, and recognises that the financial and practical challenges of childcare often impede people from participating in workshops and conferences. Anyone who needs to bring a dependent child or children with them to this event is welcome to do so, but we ask you to inform of us this in advance so that we can take them into account in our event planning and risk assessment. The safety and well-being of any children brought to this event remains at all times the responsibility of the parent or carer. While we do our best to ensure that rest and changing facilities are available for those who may need them, this does depend on the facilities available at Senate House. Again, please contact us in advance to discuss your needs, and we will do our best to accommodate them.
