Refund policy

Holding a conference in the time of COVID is a risky undertaking. A last minute cancellation or postponement is a very real possibility that could leave the Society with significant bills to pay. The only way that we have been able to move ahead with this year’s conference is through limiting the event’s financial exposure and through sharing the risks between the Society, sponsors and conference delegates. In the event of a short notice, cancellation there will be fixed costs that the Society will have to cover, and as such, we will only be able to offer a 50% refund of your registration fees. If the conference is cancelled, we will organise an online event in its place at a later date.
