An important message about safety and security:
The CHPC National Conference organisers consider the safety of our delegates to be of paramount importance and will make available a 24hr shuttle service for all delegates between the hotels and the conference venue. While the conference venue, the Boardwalk Convention Centre, is surrounded by several hotels that are within walking distance, we strongly advise and encourage delegates to make use of the 24hr shuttle to travel between the hotels and the conference venue rather than walking, especially after hours.
Neither the conference organisers, the CSIR, nor the Boardwalk, will be liable for any damages, injury or loss that befalls delegates who ignore the above advisory.
