This allows us to free up the space for another youth worker (many sessions are oversubscribed) and means you will avoid being charged the £25 fee for late-notice cancellation or non-attendance. • Check you can join with camera and microphone.

Our members regularly tell us this is better learning and we are confident you will gain more. • Eventbrite sends you all your information by email.
