Women's Aid National Conference

I've been invited to DJ for a third year at the Women's Aid National Conference in July. Women's Aid do wonderful work, and they're always a fun bunch who are quite prepared to put up with my perspective upon what constitutes an appropriate DJ set! I'm very much looking forward to contributing to their evening social.
