“The health and safety of our colleagues and customers is always our top priority. As such, we are following all safety advice and precautions as recommended by the NHS, as well as the World Health Organisation (WHO), seriously.”

“Several countries have put in place screening measures at airports and points of entry, and the Chinese government has put in place measures to limit the spread of the virus within the country too. As such, for now, customers can be reassured that while we are monitoring the situation as an international business, and staying up to date on official sources of updates and guidance from the government and authorities, it’s entirely business as usual for our events.”
