IIPB Annual Dinner 2018

I am honoured to take on the role of President of the Insurance Institute of Preston & Blackpool. This is an exciting opportunity, and I am eagerly looking forward to connecting with more of our valued members in the coming year.

Our organization thrives on the diverse membership, which brings a wealth of experience and unique perspectives. It is a fantastic way to develop your skills, and we encourage everyone to drop in for a local council meeting if this is something you are considering. Everyone I know who has ever joined any CII council shares a common drive - they want to give back and help their fellow CII & PFS colleagues. Rest assured, you will be welcomed with friendly faces, whether you are starting off on your career path or feel as though you are coming to an end. Everyone brings something new to the table, and we are actively looking for people to represent our membership to ensure we stay current and relevant.

Looking ahead, we have exciting plans for the upcoming year. We are committed to increasing our presence within the local community, providing enhanced networking opportunities, and hosting more engaging in-person events. Our aim is to foster increased engagement with our membership, ensuring that everyone feels valued and included in our collective efforts.

Our CPD training platform offers an extensive range of learning and development events, reinforcing our dedication to supporting our members' professional growth.
