Legal & General Mortgage Club has today announced that it will be holding its first-ever virtual Summer Conference, which will take place on Thursday, 16th July.

Those interested in attending the conference can register via the conference hub, located here.
Kevin Roberts, Director, Legal & General Mortgage Club: "The unprecedented situation earlier this year meant we sadly had to postpone our Spring events, but we recognise the value these conferences can bring to advisers and others in the mortgage market. Whether we are advisers, lenders or other stakeholders in this industry, it is still important that we get together to reflect on the challenges and opportunities of this unusual year.I’m excited about this new ‘virtual’ format for our Summer Conference and I will be putting my now months of video call experience to use – no pressure! I look forward to joining key figures in the industry as we debate and discuss the latest news in the mortgage market and what the post-COVID world might hold for Britain’s housing sector."
