We are also pleased that we will be joined by:

• Jeremy Miles AM, Counsel General and Brexit Minister.

We have some budget to help with travel expenses for this event for disabled people and representatives of unfunded DPOs. If you would like to attend and are travelling from outside of Cardiff, please get in touch with Charles Whitmore (whitmorecd@cardiff.ac.uk) to discuss first as the budget is limited.
