Foreign Office Twitter Q&A on winter sports
The Foreign Office along with representatives from ABTA, the Ski Club of Great Britain and Ellis Brigham Mountain Sports will be on hand to answer your questions on Twitter.

On Friday 20 February the Foreign Office’s Consular Assistance Team will hold a live Twitter Q&A on all things winter sports related.

The Q&A will take place between 3pm to 4pm (GMT), and we are delighted to have an expert panel on board to help us. The panel includes:

The Ski Club of Great Britain

  • Beth Begg, winter sports campaign manager
  • Jonny Cassidy, winter sports holidays manager
  • Dr Craig McLean, winter sports health specialist

Travel Association ABTA

  • Daisy Parker, winter sports campaign manager

Ellis Brigham Mountain Sports

  • Mark Brigham, Managing Director and expert on winter sports equipment

  • Christopher Shannon, snowboarding equipment manager

So if you’re planning on hitting the slopes this season then this is the perfect opportunity to quiz our expert panel on anything from which equipment you’ll need and what your insurance needs to cover, to how best to stay safe while on and off the piste.

Tweet your question to @FCOTravel and use the hashtag #AskWinterSports. Questions can be submitted in advance using the hashtag.
