This group is only available to full and Associate CityHR members. If you aren’t sure, feel free to check with us.

Want to join?

Simply complete this form to express interest.

Once you have signed up, you will be invited to take part in smaller group discussions, some of which will be in person, which will give you the opportunity to share your own experiences with the group, take part in more informal and in-depth discussions and contribute to debates. Equally, this also means you will have the opportunity to develop your network of peers and share and draw on resources from outside of your own organisation.

We strongly encourage members to get involved with these groups as they are a wonderful opportunity to expand your horizons and broaden your network as part of CityHR.
