#WeMakeEvents steering committee member and Adlib managing director Andy Dockerty said, “We’re pleased to offer this new way of supporting #WeMakeEvents, specially for our industry’s large population of freelancers and single person company directors, who have been impacted heavily throughout the pandemic. The #WeMakeEvents community is really what drives the campaign, so as a thank you, we have put together a package of useful services and signposts alongside invitations to get involved and make your voice heard.”
