Invitation

 

Dear Miss Forrester

 

Our Society will be holding a conference at the Moat House Hotel, Swansea from 4 to 6 October with the theme ‘The 21st Century Secretary’. Approximately 100 delegates are expected, comprising mostly practising secretaries, PAs, office managers, plus some lecturer members.

 

I hope you will agree to speak on the subject of ‘Building Great Relationships’ on 5 October from 1030 to 1130. We would be prepared to pay you the usual fee of £500 and your travel expenses. We will also arrange hotel accommodation for you for one night on 4 October.

 

The detailed draft programme is enclosed. We hope you will also stay on to attend other sessions of the conference too.

 

We really hope you can accept our invitation. At the same time please let us know what equipment you will need.

 

I hope to hear from you soon.

 

Yours sincerely
