With re-structures and financial year end dragging us into organisational self-absorption, it's both important and refreshing to spend time hearing the voices of the people we're all here to serve

We've got some fascinating speakers talking about power in all its different forms. It's a virtual event and open to everyone, so if it sounds like something up your street, then sign up today: https://bit.ly/start-with-people-march-2023
