Dear O&G Trainees,
The Wessex Trainees are delighted to welcome you to Bournemouth for SpROGs 2010. Set at the magnificent Royal Bath Hotel, with its panoramic views across the English Channel, we aim to introduce a bustling and stimulating array of lectures, debates and workshops from regional, national and international experts in their fields. Some of the core logbook topics will be presented along with many exciting new areas not covered in previous years.
We welcome abstracts for poster and oral presentation at the conference and prizes will be awarded for the best presentations in each category. We hope you will take every opportunity to enjoy a drinks reception at The Oceanarium and the Gala Dinner at the stylish and award winning Print Room. Perhaps lengthen your stay by visiting the New Forest or exploring Dorset's stunning Jurassic coast.
We look forward to seeing you in our beautiful region.

Welcome Reception
This year's welcome reception is being held in Oceanarium: The Bournemouth Aquarium. Drinks and Canapés will be served whilst you have the unique opportunity to explore the aquarium's exhibits and inhabitants after hours when all the other visitors have gone home.
Know anyone else who would like to come along too? Additional tickets are available for £15.00 each (inc VAT)

Gala Dinner
The Gala Dinner will be held at the award winning Print Room. Since its opening in 2007, The Print Room has won many awards for both its food and for its dramatic conversion from the former printing floor of the Bournemouth Echo. The Print Room won ‘Best New Interior' in the hugely coveted British Design Awards and has excelled to the top of its category in the Good Food Guide 2010.
So, join us for an opulent evening of good food, drink and hopefully some dancing in this beautiful art deco grade II listed building.

Gold Sponsor
Astellas is passionate in its commitment to improving the lives of women with Overactive bladder (OAB). The condition affects 1 in 5 women and, the prevalence increases with age. OAB has a huge impact on patients lives, driven by the distressing symptom of urgency and for some patients, incontinence.
Often patients may take years to consult their GP due to embarrassment and thinking nothing can be done to treat their condition. Even when patients do consult many of those who are prescribed an antimuscarinic agent do not remain on treatment for long. This may be driven by a combination of factors including lack of efficacy and intolerable side effects. Please visit the Astellas stand to find out more about a treatment that may help your patients restore their quality of life.
We are committed to working with you and as such we have a wide range of materials for you, including bladder diaries (as recommended in the NICE guidelines (Female urinary incontinence)) and also a patient support programme for patients on our medication.
Should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us: simon.moon@gb.astellas.com.
