COVID-19 and SWIB Events

We will be taking our guidance from the government in regards to public events and the impact of COVID-19. Currently the advice is that we should host no events over 500 guests, which we will be following.

SWIB will monitor the situation daily, however we have taken the decision to postpone our March Quiz Night until the summer. We will of course postpone others should it become recommended. Obviously any cancelled or postponed events will receive full refunds.
