We heard your feedback and that Thursdays do not work for some of you. This month and next month, we are offering 2 separate networking events. If you cannot come to one, you may be able to make it to the other, but feel free to come to both! The same agenda will be used at both meetings. (see Nov 16 event for the first one)

Come and join other Independent Support Workers to support each other in our work. Register for this meeting here (even if it’s last-minute ) :)
