With great regret BPV is postponing the public meeting and AGM we recently announced for 30 March 2020 at Harlesden. This follows careful assessment of the rapidly developing coronavirus situation. We consider that the right course now on the 11th of March is to postpone or not attend non-essential gatherings. See our previous post “Coronavirus and BPV”.
We were greatly looking forward to hearing Sir Amyas Morse, new chair of the LNWUH Trust, and Simon Crawford, Director of Strategy. They concur with us that postponement is the right course of action and hope it will be possible to restore the event when the situation allows.
In the meantime we will circulate AGM material to our members and see how much we can manage via email.
We advise our friends and colleagues, most especially those over 70 with serious long term conditions, to take great care and to consider social distancing wherever possible. We expect the Government to recommend such measures shortly.
