Whether you come to Outlook every year or if this is your first time\, we’ll be delighted to have you there! \nI want to help with Outlook\nWe’re always looking for ideas and advice from the TSC community on how to shape all of our events\, including Outlook! If you have any suggestions\, be sure to let us know by contacting support@tuberous-sclerosis.org. \nIs there parking available?\nMasonic Hall Cardiff recommend that people driving to Outlook park at the St David’s Shopping Centre\, which is just 300 yards from their front door. There is also a Cardiff Park and Ride system in place. \nMore details can be found on the Masonic Hall’s website here. \nI can't afford to go to Outlook\nTSA Support Fund might be able to help. Open to anyone who lives with TSC and receives benefits\, the TSA Support Fund offers small grants to people when the financial impact of TSC becomes too much – including with grants towards paying for attending Outlook. \nThe TSA wants all adults mildly affected by TSC to attend Outlook if they’d like to\, which is one of the reasons why Outlook tickets are free. Although the TSA always tries to keep the financial impact of Outlook as low as possible\, the costs associated with Outlook – including travel\, accommodation and food – can quickly add up. \nIs there anything planned for the evening before Outlook 2024?\nOutlook officially begins on Saturday 20 April 2024 at the Cardiff Masonic Hall. However\, an unofficial evening meal organised by Outlookers themselves will take place on the Friday evening at a local restaurant. If you’re interested in joining this unofficial meal\, please email us (support@tuberous-sclerosis.org) and we’ll connect you with the meal organisers. \nPlease note: No TSA staff members will be on-hand before or after Outlook. The TSA holds no liability for unofficial meet-ups\, organised meals or connections made as a result of the Outlook event or at any time during the weekend. \nThe TSA provides services like Outlook only thanks to donations. If you’re able to do so\, please give to the TSA so that we can continue to be here for everyone with TSC
