The meeting will be held at the Bridgewater Hall in the centre of Manchester – the home of the Hallé Orchestra. Manchester is very easy to access by car, train or even tram, and Manchester Airport is well connected with the city centre. There is a wide selection of hotels within walking distance of the venue, and a plethora of excellent restaurants. The annual dinner will take place amongst the exhibits within the Manchester Museum right in the historic centre of the University.</p> <p>This will be our first visit to Manchester, which is of course home to two Premier League football clubs, but is also a major cultural hub and has a number of excellent museums. We will also be trialling a revised programme spread over two full days, which is something that we haven’t done for several years, but we will be maintaining the breadth of the meeting and the number of oral presentations will remain the same. This year we will be having a focus on novel antihypertensive therapies, including the newer weight loss drugs, and I am delighted that Professor Sadaf Farooqi FRS will be giving the Pickering lecture. Above all, we are looking forward to sharing this time with our members and distinguished guests. We hope that you will be able to join us and share this experience with us.</p> <h2><em>We look forward to welcoming you to Manchester!</em></h2> <p> </p> <p><em> </em><strong><em>Professor Ian Wilkinson, President & Dr James Sheppard, Secretary</em></strong></p> </article> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="bg-primary text-white font-size-sm py-3 mt-3"> <div class="container"> <div class="row footer-primary-nav"> <div class="col-xs-12 col-md-6 col-xl-3"> <a href="https://bihs.org.uk/" title="British and Irish Hypertension Society | Registered UK Charity No. 287635 - British and Irish Hypertension Society" rel="home"> <img src="https://bihsoc.org/wp-content/themes/crushdigital/images/Logo-footer.png" alt="British and Irish Hypertension Society | Registered UK Charity No. 287635"> </a> <br /><br /> <div class="mb-2"> <h4 class="mb-2 text-uppercase">News</h4> <ul> <li> <a href="https://bihs.org.uk/2024-esc-guidelines-for-the-management-of-elevated-blood-pressure-and-hypertension/">2024 ESC Guidelines for the management of elevated blood pressure and hypertension</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://bihs.org.uk/know-your-numbers-as-nearly-4million-adults-could-be-living-with-undiagnosed-high-blood-pressure/">Know Your Numbers! as Nearly 4million Adults Could be Living with Undiagnosed High Blood Pressure</a> </li> </ul> </div><div class="mb-2"> <div class="textwidget"><a href="https://bihsoc.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/BIHS-PRIVACY-STATEMENT.pdf">Click here</a> to view our privacy statement</div> </div> <h4 class="mb-2 text-uppercase"><a href="/faq">FAQ</a></h4> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-md-6 col-xl-2"> <div class="mb-2"> <h4 class="mb-2 text-uppercase">Social Links</h4> <div class="row m-b-0-5"> <div class="col-xs-1 col-md-2"> <i class="fa fa-facebook" aria-hidden="true"></i> </div> <div class="col-xs-11 col-md-10"> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/bihsocevents/" target="_blank" title="Follow us on Facebook" class="no-underline"> Facebook </a> </div> </div> <div class="row m-b-0-5"> <div class="col-xs-1 col-md-2"> <i class="fa fa-twitter" aria-hidden="true"></i> </div> <div class="col-xs-11 col-md-10"> <a href="https://twitter.com/BIHSoc_Events?lang=en-gb" target="_blank" title="Follow us on Twitter" class="no-underline"> Twitter </a> </div> </div> <div class="row m-b-0-5"> <div class="col-xs-1 col-md-2"> <i class="fa fa-youtube-play" aria-hidden="true"></i> </div> <div class="col-xs-11 col-md-10"> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxVH6NpAsTvgBO8Juh5ZSSg" target="_blank" title="Follow us on YouTube" class="no-underline"> YouTube </a> </div> </div> <div class="row m-b-0-5"> <div class="col-xs-1 col-md-2"> <i class="fa fa-linkedin-play" aria-hidden="true"></i> </div> <div class="col-xs-11 col-md-10"> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/bihs/" target="_blank" title="Follow us on LinkedIn" class="no-underline"> linkedin </a> </div> </div> </div> </div>  <div class="col-xs-12 col-md-6 col-xl-3"> <div class="mb-2"> <h4 class="mb-2 text-uppercase">Contact Us</h4> <div class="mb-1"> <p>Contact us:<a href="mailto:bihs@in-conference.org.uk"> bihs@in-conference.org.uk</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Official Journal of BIHS: <a href="https://bihsoc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/A54483_Journal-of-Human-Hypertension_600x180.jpg"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://bihsoc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/A54483_Journal-of-Human-Hypertension_600x180.jpg" width="333" height="100" /></a></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-md-6 col-xl-4 mb-2"> <div class="mb-2"> <h4 class="mb-2 text-uppercase">Membership and Meetings Secretariat</h4> <div class="mb-1"> <p><strong>BIHS c/0 In Conference</strong></p> <h6>In Conference Ltd</h6> <p>Q Court<br /> 3 Quality Street<br /> Edinburgh, EH4 5BP<br /> Tel: +44 (0) 131 336 4203<br /> Email: <a href="mailto:bihs@in-conference.org.uk" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">bihs@in-conference.org.uk</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 mt-2"> <p class="mb-0"><a class="text-white" target="_blank" href="https://www.crushdigital.co.uk">Website by Crush</a></p> </div> </div> </div> </footer> <div id="um_upload_single" style="display:none"></div> <div id="um_view_photo" style="display:none"> <a href="javascript:void(0);" data-action="um_remove_modal" class="um-modal-close" aria-label="Close view photo modal"> <i class="um-faicon-times"></i> </a> <div class="um-modal-body photo"> <div class="um-modal-photo"></div> </div> </div> <script type='text/javascript' src='https://bihsoc.org/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/swv/js/index.js?ver=5.7.6' id='swv-js'></script> <script type='text/javascript' id='contact-form-7-js-extra'> /* <![CDATA[ */ var wpcf7 = {"api":{"root":"https:\/\/bihs.org.uk\/wp-json\/","namespace":"contact-form-7\/v1"},"cached":"1"};
