Post: The Secretary,

Sorry we can't welcome you to your Society's AGM in person

Throughout the pandemic, our primary focus has been on keeping our members and colleagues safe.

And in April when we were planning our event, we were aware that even if everything goes to plan, the virus will still be present in the UK at the time of our AGM.

So we decided we could best keep our members and colleagues safe by holding our AGM with just the minimum number of colleague members present in person.
