Our sessions

We aim to hold sessions every two months. We also hold drop-ins on Mondays from 10am-11am and on Fridays from 2pm-3pm. Just come along to the session Collaborate room.

If you need support and there are no sessions planned and you can't make the drop-in you can also contact us to arrange a 1-2-1 discussion with a member of the team.
