9.4.8 HELP RAISE AWARENESS OF INFERTILITY
National Infertility Day is all about helping provide those
suffering the effects of infertility with a wide range of
information. This unique event naturally attracts media attention,
which we can use to help raise awareness of the issues surrounding
infertility and promote the message that infertility is an
illness which requires medical treatment and support.
We already have some press who would like to run human interest
stories running up to and surrounding the event and who are
interested in speaking to people affected by this illness.
If you think you might feel able to help us by sharing your
experiences then please contact Susan on susanseenan@infertilitynetworkuk.com
or call 01294 230730 for more information. Your details will
never be given to the press without your permission.
2.4.8 IN RECOGNITION OF 30 YEARS OF IVF
This year's National Infertility Day (NID) conference recognises
30 years of IVF by welcoming as our opening speaker Professor
Robert Edwards, who alongside his late colleague Sir Patrick
Steptoe was one of the pioneers of IVF. In addition we are
delighted to also welcome Professor Andre Van Steirteghem,
the pioneer of intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) which
gave the chance of a child to those affected by male infertility.

way to support National Infertility Day and many of the sessions
may be very suitable to your area of interest.

take the opportunity to remind everyone that in addition to
the new sponsorship opportunities it is still possible to
put inserts in the delegate bags.

25.9.7 - DATE & VENUE FOR
NID 2008
Saturday 19th July has been chosen for the date of National
Infertility Day 2008 in celebration of 30 years of IVF.
Louise Brown, the world's first baby to be born following
IVF will be 30 years old on the 25th of July
(info).
Central London has been our location for previous NID's as
it's easily accessible by public transport and has provided
us with a maximum capacity audience of onver 600 delegates.
Again we have chosen to hold the event at the New Connaught
Rooms in Covent Garden (info)
as the venue caters well for our larger sessions in the main
hall, it has varied rooms for use during our satellite sessions
and provides two good areas for our exceptional exhibition.
