Annual Dinner
2007

Our 2007 annual dinner is being held at a venue synonymous with Manchester .  This year we have opted for the home of Manchester United Football Club at Old Trafford and no event there would be complete without an after dinner talk by Sir Bobby Charlton!  Tickets for the dinner will be £60 and include a 3 course dinner and tour of the museum with an opportunity to see the hallowed turf of the Theatre of Dreams!.

Guest Speakers

We have three guest speakers this year are  Fred Grover MD  who will be giving the Heart Research UK lecture, Keith Naunheim MD will be giving the Pulse lecture and  Dirk van Raemdonck MD    

Prizes

There will be 4 prizes available again this year.  The Ronald Edwards Medal for best oral presentation, the John Parker Medal for best interactive presentation, the SCTS Medal for best thoracic presentation and a prize for best presentation at the Forum for cardiothoracic surgical practice.

Prizewinners will be announced at the annual dinner to be held on Wednesday 14th March at Old Trafford.

The lead hotel for the Manchester meeting is The Midland.  No special rates have been negotiated this year but all the key speakers will be staying at this hotel. 

There is a wide range of accommodation within walking distance of the venue with something to sort all budgets.
