You must have valid ID to attend the convention. No ID, No Registration! Check your ID now, and make sure you know where it is, and that it is still in-date!

Need to get ID in a hurry? Many Pass scheme card suppliers offer 'urgent' applications. http://www.pass-scheme.org.uk/card-suppliers/

Don't get caught out, check your ID, and apply for a new one soon if you need to.
We've now sent out our usual 'ConFuzzled Essential Email' for all attendees registered for the convention. You should see it in your inbox soon. Can't find it? You can also see the same content online here: https://2019.confuzzled.org.uk/2019/05/15/confuzzled-essential-information/
Submitting items to the art show & auction this year? We fixed it so that you /won't/ need your conbadge to drop off your items (just your badge number). This should help as we know our registration lines may be a little long! ;)
Just a quick reminder: With the closure of the NatWest at the NEC last year, the nearest ATMs that don't charge a fee are at Resorts World, Birmingham International railway station and the Airport.

The nearest ATMs dispensing £5 notes are at Asda Chelmsley Wood and Morrisons, Halifax and TSB in Sheldon (along the A45 towards Birmingham).
Hope you're all looking forward to the convention next week! Started packing yet?

Time for another reminder: Whilst we'll be posting the most important updates during the convention here, our Convention Operations team will also be running the at-con Twitter feed again. Follow them here: https://twitter.com/CFzLive
Railway timetables changed today, so if you're coming to the convention by train, don't forget to check your times in case they've changed!

When doing so, remember to look for times to Birmingham International [BHI] rather than Moor Street, New Street or Snow Hill.
We've recently sent out an email for those of you who may be new to ConFuzzled (or furry conventions in general). If you can't see the mail in your inbox (or junk mail), then don't worry - you can read the content here: https://2019.confuzzled.org.uk/2019/05/19/new-to-confuzzled/

Quick update: Our RPG Signups are now closed!

To check if you've been successful, you'll be able to check the sign-up sheets in the library (due to be posted up 1PM on Friday) at the convention, or to sign up for games which still have spaces.
Don't forget our charity raffle!

Due to an error in the system, some people were able to get photoshoot slots before it had officially opened. To be fair to all we are resetting the system, and cancelling any existing registrations. It will reopen after opening ceremony.
