This week’s annual GIMA Day Conference (19 March, Ettington Chase, Warwickshire) has been postponed.

In a statement issued yesterday afternoon, Monday 16th March, GIMA Director Vicky Nuttall said:

In order to safeguard our members’ employees, and in light of the current Coronavirus situation we have decided to postpone the GIMA AGM & Day Conference that was due to take place this Thursday 19th March. We do plan to reschedule the event for later in the year when the risk has passed and members travel plans are less restrictive.
