Coronavirus covid-19 – Customer information
Virtual event book-stalls
If you have moved your event online, I would be delighted to provide a virtual book-stall. This is an easy way to provide an added dimension to your event, whether meeting or webinar style. I furnish event organisers with a 5 minute video outlining some titles relevant to their theme, and I provide a dedicated link for your event attendees to browse these titles again. Alternatively, I can do a live presentation. Click here to Contact me to discuss this further.
If you are already considering actual events for post covid-19 restrictions, I would love to hear from you about your future plans, even if only tentative. Click here to Contact me to discuss possibilities for a book-stall and / or to make a provisional reservation. Obviously HSE Guidelines will determine whether any such reservations will go ahead.
