Events
We host a themed, monthly network meeting, "Start the month with .....", held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in rotation.
"Start the month with ......." takes many forms, sometimes we deliver a skills session on a key topic such as assertiveness, other sessions have had a guest speaker followed by a Q&A session and open discussion. We hope to expand our events in the coming academic year and we are always open to new ideas and suggestions.
If you have an idea for a topic that "Start the month with ......" should cover, please get in touch with Gemma Griffiths or Sarah Ward.
Ultimately, it's a chance for women from across campus to come together and network in a friendly, supportive environment.
