The Workaround Glasgow: support, connection & useful conversations for parent carers running businesses and creative careers
Description
We hope you'll join us for our very first event! Part support group, part networking for parent carers who also happen to be entrepreneurs, freelancers and creatives.
Come in and grab a coffee or tea, say hello and if you're up for a share: tell us a little bit about who you are and what you do. No pressure: share as little or as much as you like in a safe and friendly space where we can all relate to each other's challenges. From there we'll hear from a guest speaker who will cover a topic relevant to us as ASN/SEND parent carers and founders/freelancers, with a chance for Q&As afterwards.
From there we will break into small discussion groups and then finish off with a group chat and open up the floor for anyone to share, troubleshoot and brainstorm ideas together.
