The national Co-operative Party, in conjunction with regional NEC members, believe that the current circumstances in relation to COVID-19 mean that the responsible course of action is to postpone the launch event of the Disabled Members’ Network until the situation becomes clearer.
This postponement is taken to ensure we protect members, speakers and staff from inside and outside the region.
We are monitoring current guidance from the government on the advice of the chief medical officer, and we will always ensure we place the interests of staff and members at the heart of any decisions.
