Event description: We look forward to welcoming you to our meeting.
We look forward to welcoming two keynote speakers who we know will inspire our members:
- Katrina Gilman-Equality & Diversity Officer for Telford Wrekin & Shropshire will talk to us about Hate Crime & Disability Awareness. Katrina took on this role when Ann Shaw retired at the end of December 2015. Katrina has worked for West Mercia Police since 2000. She has worked in varying roles in the Criminal Justice Department. She is passionate about Safe Places, a community initiative we lead on.
- Our second speaker us Kerrie Berroyer from Dazlious, learning the language of Autism. She has her own story to tell, having no knowledge of autism, she was thrust into it in 2005 when her son was born. This meant her professional career had to take a back seat!
As well as welcoming our guest speakers, there will be opportunity to network. Arrive between 10.30 am & 11 am for refreshments & after completing the official business, you will be able to listen to our inspiring speakers. There will be an opportunity to network during a break, buy a raffle ticket for our quarterly raffle.
We look forward to meeting with you.
We have Sign Language Interpreters (BSL) at all our meetings.
