Join Us for a Special Celebration Dinner.

We’re delighted to be hosting our annual dinner, celebrating the 10th anniversary of IP Inclusive — a chance to mark a decade of progress in terms of connection, outreach and improving visibility of all in our community. The evening is also an opportunity to mark the end of Congress 2025 and for CIPA to thank Congress’s delegates, speakers, delegates and all those involved for their valuable contributions and without whom Congress would not be possible. If you’re attending the CIPA Congress or are local to the area or are even from further afield, we warmly invite you to join us for this special occasion.

Places are limited, and all members are welcome to attend. The evening will include a three-course meal and refreshments.

Separate registration is required for the dinner.
