This month’s meeting will be our AGM- we will be looking over what we can learn from the past year, as well as discussing our plans for the next one.

If you’re thinking about joining us to say hello, please be aware the AGM agenda means there is no script discussion or story workshopping in the May meeting- we’ll resume normal service when we meet again at the beginning of June.
