There are three Park + Ride sites operating in Perthshire:
Cycling
There is bicycle parking available at the Concert Hall, near the back of the building on the Museum side.
Car Parking
There is both on-street and off-street parking on Mill Street where charges apply from 8am - 6pm Monday to Saturday. There are three disabled public car parking spaces directly opposite the main entrance to the concert hall but these tend to fill very quickly.
There is also a car park on Kinnoull Street which is operated by Smart Parking Car Parks (01738 440 933).
This 550-space multi-storey car park is open from 7am – midnight Monday to Saturday and 10am – midnight on Sundays. It is a pay-and-display car park meaning that the charge must be paid on arrival.
A height restriction for this car park is also in place: approximately two metres (six-and-a-half feet). Vehicles higher than this should park in South Inch car park where there's no height restriction.

Over the previous 20 years the education provided by the NES Pharmacy Team has grown and evolved from a small group of individuals to a larger team covering a variety of pharmacy workstreams.
Our stand showcases the variety of education provided by NES Pharmacy from the traditional distance learning packs and events to more recently e-learning resources, animations and managing training programmes.
Here is a link to the poster which will be displayed on the stand during the conference.
