The Oxford Muscle Service's annual conference, this year focusing on the topic of 'spinal muscular atrophy'.About this Event
Note that parking in Oxford City Centre is very limited and public transport is preferred. If you need to drive, it's recommended that you use one of Oxford's Park and Rides. The Pear Tree (north of the ring road) and Redbridge (south of the ring road) Park and Rides are the most convenient, as the 300 bus connects both directly to the venue. Paid parking can also be found at Oxford Railway Station and Westgate Mall, and street parking (not guaranteed) on Bevington Road and St Giles/Woodstock Road.
