WARNING! FAKE Reservation Service trying to SCAM conference delegates & speakers
We have become aware of a scam where an organisation is pretending to be the designated travel agency for the conference organisers and is emailing invited speakers. If you receive emails from Travelpyoneer / Travel Housing Team, please be careful.
Please ignore the emails and do not reply nor click on any link given by them. You can also block the domain on your email client. This company is NOT a service partner of ARA. The appointed ARA conference organisers team (Madalina, Rose, Celia, Kate or Charlotte from Opening Doors & Venues) will email you from the domain @opening-doors.org.uk. If you are in doubt at any point, please email us on araconference@opening-doors.org.uk or phone our office on +44 (0) 1562 731 788.
