A pleasure to attend Tuesday’s ELT Thinking Together Day at @Village_Hotels Cardiff and to represent the voice of our volunteers.
Plenty of positive future planning, with discussions firmly aligned to our strategy, lots happening in Q1 and Q2 next year, and looking further ahead to 2028. Exciting times ahead for @SJACymru!

Tonight I joined @CommCandV for the @StJohnCardiffV Council meeting. We started with their Annual General Meeting before moving into their usual quarterly meeting, with a packed agenda on how the council can support @SJACymru across the county. Plus, a training night @SJACRadyr.
