In a breathtakingly short time the COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the world bringing terrible loss of life, wreaking havoc with health services and threatening the livelihood of millions as businesses struggle to remain afloat during widespread lockdown of entire countries.

To those who have lost loved ones or colleagues, we extend our most heartfelt sympathy in these very difficult times. To those of you working in hospitals, or with friends and family on front-line healthcare duties during the crisis, we send our sincere thanks and urge you all to keep safe.
Sincerely,
