In June, we kicked off our new schedule of activities with a casual launch event at Flash Musicals theatre. It was a relaxed afternoon where our team and members gathered to chat, enjoy some board games, and share a few tasty bites. One of the highlights?

We’re thrilled about the new activities on offer and can’t wait for more days like this in the future!
