London & South East Area

Anglia and South East Area will be holding a Training Day. This will cover a number of skills which are important for office-holders within Plus, and have a wider application as well.

From Sharon Law, the new Training Officer for Anglia & South East Area:

"My intention is to look at skills such as assertiveness, effective communication and team work and then to split into groups relating to the positions on group and area commitees. Kerry Mann - the new PRO for Anglia & South East - will be looking at effective ways of publicity across groups and across the area."
