Due to a major fire in the Holborn area, much of the surrounding London area is without power, including Somerset House where our office is situated.

As a result the building is shut down and there is no access to our office or telephones. Staff will try and respond to email where they can (if possible), and we thank you for your patience during this time.

We apologise if this causes any inconvenience, and will update as soon as we have any further news.

Please note AOI office will be closed over the Bank Holiday period.
