The British Esperanto Congress 2010 will take place from Friday 14th to Monday 17th May 2010 in the beautiful town of Llandudno, North Wales.

The organisers have put together an excellent website where you can find detailed information about both the local area and the event itself.

If you’re interested and would like to sign up, you’ll need to go to the website of the Esperanto Association of Britain where it is possible to register and pay online. The cost of the weekend is £43, which includes tea and coffee (meals and accommodation payable separately). Don’t forget that if you’re under 26 and able to write a letter in Esperanto, you may be able to apply for funding from NoJEF to cover the cost of the congress for you.

As ever, we hope that there will be a strong JEB presence at the congress and will be holding our AGM on the Saturday afternoon at 2pm. All are welcome to attend, either as a member or as a spectator if you’re no longer under 30. If you have any issues which you would like us to put on the agenda for the meeting, feel free to drop us a line.

If you have any questions about the congress, would like some help with finding accommodation, or haven’t attended a JEB meeting before and would like to get to know some of us in advance, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us at the JEB forums. In the meantime, don’t forget that the next JEB meeting will be taking place on Saturday 6th February in Cardiff

The British Esperanto Congress 2009 will be taking place in Salisbury between Friday 17th and Monday 20th April 2009. The venue is Sarum College, an educational centre located in attractive surroundings, approximately 15 minutes’ walk from the main train and bus stations. It is possible to book overnight accommodation at the college. Alternatively, there is a range of accommodation available in the town of Salisbury itself.

The congress promises to be an exciting weekend, the highlight of the British Esperanto calendar. The theme this year is Zamenhof’s legacy, as well as the culture of the surrounding Salisbury area. An interesting programme of lectures and discussions awaits, as well as conversational classes and grammar sessions for those who feel they would benefit from extra practise, and the opportunity to buy a range of Esperanto books.
