BOPA Update, AGM and Symposium Summary

Thank you so much for supporting BOPA this year.  Please find below an update on the AGM and the BOPA 2020 Symposium.

BOPA 2020 AGM – We still need your VOTES!

Thank you very much to all those who joined us for the virtual AGM this year. We got some great tips on virtual presentation from The Method before giving our annual update and voting on changes to the constitution and fees structure.

Unfortunately, we were not quorate on the night, so we need to run a further on-line vote to approve the changes. Please review our slides or watch the recording of the AGM before casting your vote (please see below).

If you attended the AGM and cast your votes on the night PLEASE VOTE AGAIN via the website (link below) so we can collate all the votes together and ensure everyone only votes once. Please accept our apologies for the duplication of effort.
