Hi Helly! :)

I'd like to go but workwise can't confirm just yet ~ interviewing all day, but should be able to make it.
What time does it start?

Are you definitely going?

love from Liz xxxxx

Its 6-9pm. I'm definitely going. Not sure how many spaces they have left so if you can go, that'll be brilliant :)

Not sure what time people are planning on getting there but I was thinking of getting there earlier and grabbing some food if anyone fancies joining me....

Don't think there are any restaurants near the Thistle... I know there are quite a few on Temple Street but thats a good 15min walk (which is about 25 mins for me)

Let me know what you think.... ThumpUp

Though we didn't get much time to chat, last night's NRAS workshop was excellent! A lot of very useful information and well presented. If there's one near you coming up do go along it really is worth it.

Was great to see Helly and Liz, and from my table alone we may have 2 new members :D

Really productive night.ThumpUp

That sounds really good! I'm not working (ill health retired,) except voluntarily, so didn't think it would be useful?

I'm SO glad i went - wish i could have popped that lawyer in my handbag!

What a useful and interesting night, ....in spite of my now ritualistic getting lost on a roundabout beforehand!

Liz + NRAS + meeting + roundabout = L O S T!!!!! ;)

Thank you everyone at NRAS for all the preparation and work you must have done - really good presentations and empowering stuff to think about. Thank You! xx

A BIG thank you from me too!!

It was a really good night, lots of information and great to meet other people... I think we may have a couple more members from our table too ThumpUp

Even though I am not working at the mo, I've had major problems in the past and so it was reassuring (if thats the right phrase) to know I'm not alone and that there is the support out there. I know that when I finish my studies and head back to the workplace, that I can start as I mean to go on and ensure that my voice is heard...

One thing I did think of after I got home was perhaps if people could enrol on a confidence course. After all its fantastic knowing what support there is but you don't always have the confidence to fight your corner....

It was also lovely seeing Jo and Liz again.. just wish we had more time.. Maybe we could sort out a little get together one weekend.... a day in Stratford or somewhere between all of us...
