YOU MUST BE BOOKED ON TO AN EVENT IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE

- Although ELMS advertise the events of other like-minded organisations, the ELMS Trustees cannot be held responsible for the organisation of those events or for dates / details listed above for those events.
N.B. You may encounter additional Covid clauses in your travel insurance, also additional regulations regarding national and international travel – BE AWARE.
ELMS will endeavour to notify, in good time, members and guests booked onto any ELMS organised events if cancellation is necessary due to Covid-19 – please ensure that your insurance covers this eventuality – the Society cannot be held liable for circumstances beyond its control.
