AGM online member social

Join us for a pre-AGM online social for SoA members to chat informally with fellow members, SoA staff, and Committee members. Whilst we can’t promise drinks and nibbles, we’ll make every effort to ensure you meet new people and have meaningful conversations.

This event is for SoA Members only

How it works

After an initial introduction, we will throw open the break-out rooms which will be hosted by Committee members and supported by a member of staff. There will be two rounds of 20-minutes.

The main Zoom room will remain open to help members get in and out break-out rooms. When the second break-out room session ends, we will reconvene in the main Zoom room to close. Everyone is welcome in any room.

Just like any in-person social event, we encourage you to drop into any break-out room, and we hope you can chat with fellow members.  The break-out rooms are intended to be purely social.

The breakout rooms will be: TBC
