Annual Dinner
The President and Council of The Insurance Institute of Guernsey request the pleasure of your company at the Annual Dinner to take place at St Pierre Park Hotel on Friday 14th October 2016, 6.45 p.m. for 7.30 p.m., commencing with a complimentary glass of bubbles. The bar will close at 12.45pm.
This black tie event, as well as providing an enjoyable evening, seeks to celebrate and recognise the achievements of Chartered Insurance Institute and Personal Finance Society students. It is hoped that as many members achieving qualification will attend and that their employers will encourage attendance. The evening also seeks to raise funds for the Insurance Charities and the President's nominated local charity which, this year, is the Friends of Anthony Thomas.
After dinner entertainment is to be provided by Alfie Moore. He was born and raised in Sheffield and was an engineering apprentice in the steelworks before joining the Police. He brings a wealth of insights and comedy moments from his eighteen years on the beat and has written and presented two series of the BBC Radio Four comedy series "It's a fair cop".
