(Replacing "Breakfast Briefings)

Friday Mornings - 10am to 11am
The Scottish Continuity Group is dedicated to providing learning events to its members. 

During COVID, face-to-face meetings and learning events may be impossible for some months to come, just at the time when sharing good practice and reflecting on new initiatives is more important than ever.  

As a result, we are replacing our regular Breakfast Meetings (Edinburgh & Glasgow) with a “Lockdown Café” running on selected Fridays from 10am to 11am. To ensure we add as much value to these sessions as possible, each session will be facilitated by a Board Member, and will have a guest speaker (or two!) who will present on a topical issue for 10 minutes and take questions. 

Details of the guest speaker(s)/topic together with Zoom dial-in particulars will be sent to Scottish Continuity Members on a regular basis.We also welcome any suggestions from Members as to what you would like to chat about.
