“Given the unique circumstances surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic, we recognise that many of these professionals may have missed out on valuable opportunities to connect and build relationships with their peers and colleagues,” the association said.

“We want to make it a priority to create an environment where our recently qualified members can come together and get to know one another.”

The event is to take place on Thursday 22 February 2024 at 5.30pm, with the venue in Galway to be confirmed.
