COVID-19 has certainly had an affect on so many aspects of life in the UK and around the world.  I never saw the time when the traditional i-UG conference – complete with Bacon Butties – would have to switch to a virtual, remote format in order to get our education out there; whilst still observing the Social Distancing that has been so important.

but, here we are. And amidst all this disturbance there emerges a unique opportunity.  i-UG has been linked to charities in the past but the current opportunity to contribute to the NHS that has been so important to us cannot be ignored.  This conference, supported by the Sponsors and Delegates, has combined to give us the ability to raise money for the NHS whilst we take in our education.

On behalf of i-UG, I want to thank the Sponsors who have stuck with us on this campaign.  On behalf of the Delegates, the Sponsors and i-UG, I want to thank the NHS and all the associated care workers and key workers for supporting us.  Now it’s our turn to support you.

Profits from this event are being donated to the NHS Together Charity.
