IPPN Principals’ Conference 2022 - Accommodation Cancellation
- Published: 05 May 2022
Further to recent correspondence regarding the IPPN Principals’ Conference, you may have seen that a number of high profile events due to take place in Citywest Hotel have been cancelled. IPPN is still awaiting formal confirmation from Citywest that the venue is unavailable for the IPPN conference, which was due to take place later this month. However, IPPN has been advised that our event and all associated reservations at the hotel and the convention centre must be cancelled.
We advise all members who have booked accommodation for the May event to please cancel same.
IPPN is fully committed to holding the Principals’ Conference in 2022. It is likely that it will take place in November in an alternative venue. We hope to be able to confirm specific dates and venue within the next fortnight.
Thank you for your ongoing patience and understanding
