AHDA Conference 2022 postponed
All existing bookings will remain valid and will be automatically transferred to the new conference dates.
Event postponed due to Queen's funeral.

The 2022 Animal Health Distributors Association (AHDA) Conference has been postponed in respect of the late Queen Elizabeth II.

Due to take place on Monday 19 and Tuesday 20 September, the event clashes with the Queen's funeral on 19 September, and will be moved in respect of the late Queen and her family.

AHDA has not yet announced the new date for the conference, but will inform delegates, sponsors and all involved as soon as this has been confirmed.

The AHDA is reassuring delegates that all existing bookings and arrangements will be automatically transferred to the new conferences dates, and will remain valid.

In a press statement, the association said: “AHDA, like the rest of the nation, is deeply saddened by the loss of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and has joined the nation in mourning.”
