Vanessa Weddell,
Head of events
We love bringing the comms community together for events – a great way to see our peer-to-peer learning model in action!
We remain committed to providing you with the information and training needed to help you and your teams meet the challenges you’re facing. We’re continuing to work hard to bring you timely and relevant event content in a variety of formats, including our on demand feature so that you can explore the content whenever suits you best.
While the majority of our events remain online, we’re also trialling a few in-person networking and training opportunities throughout 2025, and hope to see you there too!
