Where possible, we try to avoid holding events over religious and cultural days of significance. Unfortunately this is not always possible, and on this occasion we are aware that Rosh Hashanah falls on this date.

If you observe Rosh Hashanah, please let us know below so we can make every effort to accommodate your participation in the event.
