</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial">In order to allow the awardees time to plan to attend, it is time to consider nominations for the up-coming 2007 conference in Beijing, China. We would now invite nominations in the usual three categories as listed below and for each category we will require a brief CV or summary of work (relating to the appropriate category) for the nominee(s) plus the additional information outlined for each category below (Distinguished Service Award, Young Contributor Award, and Outstanding Practice).<BR>
<BR>
<B>Nominations should be sent in the first instance to Lori McElroy as representative of the Awards Committee – <FONT COLOR="#0000FF"><U>lori.mcelroy@thelighthouse.co.uk</U></FONT> by a closing date of the 31st August 2006.<BR>
</B><BR>
We hope that there will be a good competition this time, so please contact me to discuss a possible nomination if required. We also hope that nominations will be made for the Distinguished Practice Award this time around, as no award was made in this category last time, despite the fact that there is plenty of appropriate talent Worldwide.<BR>
<BR>
Kind regards<BR>
