Everyone interested in Cryonics is welcome to attend.
 
It has seemed obvious for some time now that it would be desirable to have medical professionals to help with suspensions.  As we do not have these among our members it has been suggested that we employ non-members, with medical training, to assist in stand-bys.
 
To move toward this goal we have invited two ambulance drivers/nurses, one of which also has experience as an embalmer, to take part in the Sunday training session.
 
It is proposed that they will be paid to attend training sessions four days a year and be paid on a daily basis to help with suspensions. Assuming this goes according to plan we would like to increase the number to 4 employees. It should be stressed that if this goes ahead we will still need the services of trained volunteers.
 
The Saturday will be devoted to discuss this proposal, among other matters concerning Cryonics UK, and taking decisions on possible subsciption increases for members who wish to use this service. Maybe a two tier system would be appropriate.
 
We therefore encourage all members to attend if possible and contribute to formalising what will hopefully be a more professional and improved stand-by response.
