Thank you to our guest sponsors:

Victoria Royle ACII, President of the Insurance Institute of Manchester is delighted to announce that our Annual Dinner will take place on Friday 8th November at the Mercure Hotel with Zurich as our main sponsor.

Join us for a packed evening with glamorous entertainment performances, a three course dinner and plenty of laughs with comedian Tiff Stevenson. Following the fabulous dinner, continue the party atmosphere in the International Suite with the return of DJ Disco Dave to dance the night away!

Our theme this year is a Masked Ball and we encourage guests to come dressed for the occasion wearing a mask... the more elaborate the better to join in with the electric atmosphere!

Please note: Mask are only encouraged to be worn, this is not compulsory. There will be a competition where volunteers will scout for the person wearing the 'Best Mask'... it's all just for fun!
