As a ray of light the Irish team of Peter, Paula and Sile would like to welcome you to Dublin in August. We are hosting this year's Doctors In Training conference from August 7th to 9th.

On the Saturday we will spend the day in 'The Sanctuary' - a really nice oasis of peace in the middle of Dublin for retreats and meetings.
