Special Guest Speakers:
We are delighted to welcome two guest speakers to this year’s AGM:
George Phillips, Trustee and Chess Champion
George is passionate about bringing chess to visually impaired people. He will speak about how the game can be made accessible to everyone and explain how visually impaired players enjoy and play chess through a range of adaptations. George’s story, along with his commitment to making chess more inclusive, is truly inspiring.

Sanja will share an overview of KVA’s work and outline the ways in which our members may be able to benefit from their services. We are very pleased to have Sanja join us at this year’s AGM.
