Come along to the Take on Board breakfast, November 2016

Thinking that joining a board might be an ideal way to make your contribution? Not sure where to start, where to look, or even if your skills are what a board needs? Come and hear from two fabulous directors on their experience and tips on getting and being on a board.

A large group of women sit around three white and round tables, talking and smiling.

This event is ideal for aspiring, new or experienced directors or those wanting to meet new and interesting people.
