NAJ and Retail Jeweller Postpone Charity Golf Day

18 Mar 2020

Today, The National Association of Jewellers and supporter Retail Jeweller have postponed its forthcoming charity golf day, which was due to take place early next month at the Forest of Arden Marriott Hotel & Country Club.

The event originally scheduled for 9th April, aimed to raise money for the Benevolent Society and NAJ Educational Trust and was to be followed by an NAJ Live for members and supporters to network in the centre’s hospitality areas.

Following government advice amid the coronavirus pandemic both organising parties have decided to postpone the event until Autumn 2020 with conversations currently taking place with the venue to secure a provisional date.

Garry Lane, Partnerships Manager said,

“Unfortunately due to Covid-19 we have taken the difficult, but we feel correct decision, to postpone the upcoming NAJ & Retail Jeweller Golf Day until later in the year.

“We hope those who had registered for both the golf and the NAJ live that followed the activity understand the precautions being taken. We look forward to welcoming members to Forest of Arden later in the year."

Ruth Faulkner, Editor of Retail Jeweller said,

“With everything that is going on at the moment, I am sure everyone will agree that postponing the forthcoming golf day is the right decision. Thank you to everyone who has supported the event to date and we look forward to welcoming you all to our inaugural golf day in the Autumn.”

Members who had previously registered for the event have been contacted and will be contacted again when the provisional date is secured.
