BUDDY SCHEME
The IOA, Early Careers Group and the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Working Group has put together a Buddy Scheme for Reproduced Sound 2022. The scheme is to enable people who are not confident about attending the conference (buddies) to have a point of contact (mentor) throughout the conference. Each mentor will be grouped with two buddies. Where possible buddies and mentors will be grouped according to specialist acoustic interests, if desired. If you would like to take part in this scheme please tick the box on the registration form.
The Buddy Scheme is being delivered with support from the IOA Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Working Group and the Early Careers Group. The EDI Working Group is keen to hear about the experiences of IOA members and to receive any suggestions for improving EDI within the Institute. Contact diversity@ioa.org.uk if you would like to get in touch.

INFORMATION
BRISTOL
Home to Banksy’s world-class street art and with the accolades of ‘World’s best culinary destination’ in the 2019 Food Trekking Awards and UNESCO City of Film in 2017, Bristol is renowned for its vibrant arts and culture scene. The city buzzes all year round from an outstanding range of independent restaurants, bars, pubs and cafés and an annual programme of events in an eclectic mix of venues and outdoor spaces. With iconic sights including Brunel’s Clifton Suspension Bridge and the historic SS Great Britain on the harbourside, Bristol’s reputation for pioneering engineering and innovation is as relevant today as it has always been. Bristol is the only UK city to be named European Green Capital (2015) and was the UK’s first cycling city.
TRAVEL
Rail
Bristol has two mainline railway stations. Bristol Temple Meads is located in the city centre. There are several options for ongoing travel from here, including the Bristol Flyer Airport Bus, Bristol Ferry Boats that will take you to various locations around the central harbourside and many bus routes including direct buses to Clifton Village.
