-  Hand sanitiser will be available at the venue.

-  No refreshments will be provided and you will be asked to leave the venue promptly on conclusion of the formal business of the AGM.

-  You are requested to take a test for Covid-19* within the 24 hours prior to the AGM and not to attend the meeting if the test produces a positive or inconclusive result.
