Presentations from this year's British Humanist Association's Annual Conference below.
The theme was 'Meaning of/in Life' and each of the talks then contributed a different perspective.
I went along for fun, as it was local to me in Manchester and found it very thought provoking.. enjoy.

Thanks, David. I am a life member of the BHA but haven't been to an annual meeting for donkeys' years.
