Co-Chair of the CSP North West Network, Karen Martin, said: “It was a pleasure to meet up with local members, for this well-overdue in person event. Given the ongoing changes to structure and staffing throughout the profession, it made perfect sense to focus this event on developing our workforce. We were delighted with the calibre of speakers who gave their time to present today, and judging from the event’s positive attendance and feedback, the local members agree.”
