HAS President's Message 27th March 2020

I regret to advise you that the Organizers and Officers of the Society have made the decision to CANCEL the 2020 scientific meeting in Shrewsbury. This is in accordance with advice on Covid 19 to cancel all non-essential travel and events until the end of summer. No doubt you will not be surprised to receive this news. We aim to minimise any risk of transmitting the Corona virus.
​
We hope to reschedule the conference, perhaps in the spring of 2021. If the identified speakers and those who submitted abstracts are able to attend on the rescheduled dates, it may be possible to have the same programme. Further information will be notified as soon as possible. A full refund of registration fees will be made to all those who have already paid. In the meantime, I do hope that you and yours keep safe at this difficult time.

President, HAS
