Re: Youth Exchange in York, June 23-26

Dear all,

I'd just like to add a few details to this earlier announcement:

- Participants must be aged 18 to 30 and should be citizens or residents of
the European Union.

- Participants will receive 20% off Towards Carfree Cities conference
registration, as well as 70% of return travel costs, so it's a great way to
get to the conference affordably.

- The deadline for applications is 27 April.

- Please spread the word to anyone who you think might be interested.

By the way, we've recently emailed everyone who has ever attended a Towards
Carfree Cities conference or World Carfree Network international event. If
you did not receive that email, please send me your email address so we can
update our records. We also have a Facebook Group 'Towards Carfree Cities IX
- York 2010' that you can join.

Thanks,

Randy
