Hello Everyone...

Great to see some new faces at last week's Meet up and thanks to all the 'veterans' who came along to chat to everyone...Programmes until end of the year are now full, and we have been taking applications for our January and February programs in Gredos.

Our next open day will be Sunday, 22nd November from 3pm - at Camino Bar, Regent Quarter (off Pentonville Road), Kings Cross. I will give a brief introduction to Vaughantown and you can meet people who've done a programme and ask about their experiences. I hope to have at least 4 'veterans' at Camino who have done a Vaughantown program in either Gredos or Salamanca so you can meet them and ask about about their experiences. We will be there from 3pm till 6pm. Please RSVP - if you'd like to attend as I need to make a note of numbers...
