Unfortunately for registrations cancelled after 20 June 2022, or for no-shows at the conference, the full fee (100% cancellation charges) will be payable.

Should you test positive for Covid-19 or be required to self-isolate, do not attend the conference. In this case we will fully refund registration fees and accommodation booked through the conference registration page.

In the unlikely event that it is necessary to cancel the conference, all pre-paid registration fees will be reimbursed. NbSI shall not be liable for reimbursing the cost of travel or accommodation arrangements made by individual delegates.
