Venue Change!

\n

New Venue

\n

The new ven ue for UK Nats is Ashton Court Mansion\, Long Ashton\, BS41 9JN. The building is fully wheelchair accessible and we are being given use of several spaces inside to accommodate fixed seating and the stream. There is wi-fi available\, but for the time being we are planning to stic k to our policy of restricting access to that in order to prioritise the s tream.

\n

However\, Ashton Court is a little way out of Bristol City Centre - approximately 15-20 minutes’ drive or 45 minutes by bus from Br istol Temple Meads train station. In addition\, the building itself is 10- 12 minutes’ walk up a long driveway from the nearby bus stops.

\n

Travel

\n

We are exploring several options for helping attendees tra verse the extra distance to the new venue. Firstly\, we ask that any atten dees who have a car and are able to make trips from Bristol city centre to Ashton Court at the start or end of any of the days please make themselve s known to us so that we can arrange carpooling for those without vehicles . There is free parking available at the venue. We will be coordinating th is in the below thread\, so please post there if you are able to help.

\n

We are aware that this extra travel may create an obstacle for some a ttendees who have physical access needs or who had not budgeted for it in their planning. If you have particular needs in terms of transport or acce ss\, or your financial situation is such that the cost of this extra trans port would be a barrier to your participation in the event\, please contac t us using the details below. We will coordinate transport (likely via tax i) for those who need it for these reasons\, using the event budget.

\n

In addition\, in order to assist people in making the journey from the edge of the Ashton Court estate to the venue building\, we will be running a volunteer shuttle service. If you have a vehicle\, will be driving to t he venue\, and are willing to help shuttle people at the start or end of a ny of the days\, please get in touch.

\n

Food

\n

Ashton Court does not have the facilities to cater for the number of attendees we are e xpecting\, and given the size of the estate it is not close enough to othe r places where attendees could buy food in a timely fashion. As such\, we recommend that all attendees make plans to bring food for themselves for e ach day that they attend\, especially on Saturday which will be a long day .

\n

In addition\, we will be sourcing a large quantity of vegan\, nu t-free snacks which we will make available at cost price in the venue\, fo r payment by cash or card. Please do not assume that this tuck shop will b e able to adequately feed you for the whole event.

\n

Prizing
