2011 Reunion Dinner
for Hadrians Old Boys Association
The reunion dinner took place on the 24th
September 2011 at the Hallmark Hotel, Carlisle.
It was well represented by a cross section from all Intakes and everyone
appeared to have enjoyed the whole weekend. Unfortunately a number of HOB's had
to cancel due to ill health, but we hope they will be up and running for 2013.

Travel Insurance
Anyone travelling abroad is advised to get
a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC).
http://www.e111.org.uk/
The E111 is no longer valid. A European Health InsuranceCard (EHIC) is needed to receive necessary healthcare during a visit
to a European Economic Area (EEA) country or Switzerland.
The EHIC is normally valid for three to five years and
covers any medical treatment that becomes necessary during a trip, because of
either illness or an accident. The card gives access to state-provided medical
treatment only, and treatment will be given on the same basis as an "insured"
person living in the country being visited. However, this might not cover all
the things that might be expected free of charge from the NHS in the UK. A
contribution may be necessary towards the cost of care.
The EHIC also covers any treatment needed for a chronic
disease of pre-existing illness.
Arrangements need to be made in advance for
oxygen therapy. For limited information on oxygen supply services in the EEA
countries and Switzerland, call the Department of Health's Customer Service
Centre on: (0044) 0208 7210 4850.
It is a good idea to buy travel insurance as
well as taking the European Health Insurance Card. The British Insurance Brokers
Association has a list of firms, which provide travel insurance for people with
permanent or recurring illness.
