Training

Dear members.

The COASA has received information about further toxicology training from ROAR Forensics which you will find below.  The afternoon is
fully booked but there are some spaces in the morning.


FREE TOXICOLOGY TRAINING – 28 MARCH 2012,  WESTMINSTER CORONER’S COURT

Our last toxicology seminar was such a success that we have decided to offer another – this time in London on 28th March.

We had over 100 delegates in Nottingham last year and it was a good opportunity to meet with so many of our clients and stakeholders that rely
on professional toxicology to support their activities.  So, to play our part in helping with tight budgets in 2012, we have decided to run another
free of charge for our South East colleagues.

We are most grateful to HM Coroner Dr Fiona Wilcox, responsible for the Inner London West District, for allowing us to use the Coroner’s Court in
Westminster for this event.

We appreciate that Coroners and their staff are very busy and so we have organised a morning and afternoon session, such that delegates can attend
whichever is more convenient. Lunch will be provided for both groups in between the two sessions.

We are confident that this event will provide an opportunity not only for Coroners and their staff to learn about the very latest in toxicology from
our most Senior Forensic Toxicologists, but also to network with fellow professionals.  CPD points from The Royal College of Pathologists and The
Association of Anatomical Pathology can be obtained upon request.

If you are interested in attending, please complete the attached Booking Form and return it to Francesca Chick either by email,
francesca.chick@roarforensics.com, fax to 01684 574276 or alternatively post to this address -
Malvern Hills Science Park, Geraldine Road, Great
