Chamber of Shipping: Theresa Villiers to speak at Chamber Dinner

Wednesday, 25 November 2009 12:00 AM

Theresa Villiers, the Shadow Transport Secretary, will be the principal guest speaker at the Chamber's Annual Dinner at the London Hilton in Park Lane on 1 February. The dinner will be a sparkling occasion and an opportunity to network with the leading lights of UK shipping. As all who have attended in previous years will testify, the speeches, the food, the wine and the company are of the highest order. The ticket price of £140 (£161.00 inclusive of VAT) includes wine (two bottles of white and three of red per table of ten) and a glass of Port or Armagnac.

If you would like tickets or to discuss any of the arrangements please contact Donna Stevens on 020 7417 2840 or donna.stevens@british-shipping.org
