Keeping the HEART UK community covid safe
The HEART UK conference committee wishes to ensure that the conference will take place in a covid secure environment. The committee will be working together with the University of Warwick to provide a covid safe environment throughout the conference.
HEART UK will follow safe best practices and government guidance and will continually review attendance requirements based on available information.
To help keep our educational community safe, and those working on behalf of the venue and other suppliers, currently we request that in-person attendees adhere to the below.

- This can be either a photo of the LFT or the auto notification given if you log your result on the government website.
- Report a COVID-19 rapid lateral test result.
- We appreciate that some attendees may be exempt from the above.
- It is important that you notify us in advance if this is the case.
- Show proof of immunity following a positive covid result and the appropriate number of days of isolation as per government guidance.
