This year we are heading to Wales! Thank you to Danielle and Leon from ICC Wales for sponsoring our annual celebration event of the year. We can’t wait to see the new venue!
This hugely popular event will start on 10th December at 6.30pm with a welcome drink at The Mulberry Bar at the Celtic Manor Resort, there will then be lots of networking, a tapas feast and the opportunity to show off your ice-skating skills! (all first-timers to an ABPCO event will be invited to come along at 6.15pm to meet each other). Dress up warm – Christmas jumpers and casual clothes will be the order of the day. We will really be kicking off the festive season in style! The supper, the equivalent of half a bottle of wine and the ice-skating cost £40 pp – payable in advance.
ICC Wales have allocated us some lovely bedrooms at the Celtic Manor – use the code on the agenda page of the event to book these at the special rate which includes breakfast.
