[Nhcoll-l] Venue sought for next fluid preservation course in UK

[Simon Moore]

After another successful fluid preservation/conservation course, hosted by Southampton University earlier this year, I am looking for another venue to host the next course for 2025.
The venue ideally needs to be a laboratory and with a teaching or other collection of fluid-preserved natural history specimens that requires interventive conservation.
The venue will need to supply preservation fluids, some glassware and various other items - a list will be supplied but the trainer will provide the materials that are either expensive or difficult to obtain.  In return for this courtesy, up to 3 free places are offered to the host institution for members of staff.

If you feel you can host this course (over 4 days, from Monday to Thursday), then please contact me by email: couteaufin at btinternet.com 

Many thanks.

With all good wishes, Simon
