Dear ESCIF friends and colleagues

We hope you all had a relaxing Christmas holiday and that the New Year started out well for you. We presume you are now bursting with vitality to tackle all the things that will happen in your lives during 2017!
One highlight of 2017 will of course be the annual ESCIF Congress. This year the Congress will be organised in cooperation with the Slovenian Paraplegic Association; Zveza Paraplegikov Slovenije, and will take place on 10 – 12th May. The venue is their own purpose resort: Dom Paraplegikov which overlooks the beautiful Adriatic coast, nearby the historic port of Piran.
Our Early bird registration deadline is 14th February (Valentine's Day!). Of course there are only a limited number of rooms within the resort itself, with other delegates comfortably accommodated in nearby hotels.  
Note: It is possible to register up until 14th March, but for an additional cost of 50€ per person.
