We only planned in-person events for 2022 – here’s what happened
Speaker: Krishan Solanki
Muscular Dystrophy UK’s Events portfolio includes Third Party Challenges, Owned-Challenge Events and Special Events. Pre-pandemic these areas were all growing and in 2020 and 2021 many of these events were hybrid or virtual versions. However, we found were not raising anywhere near the previous in person events. So, through our learnings of contingency planning and modifying some events to be able to take place even with restrictions, we wanted 2022 to be the year we deliver all of them back as live events with the aim to raise pre-pandemic figures. Join the session to find out how we did this and the results.
