Providers Forum

June 25th 2020, 1.30 - 2.30 pm

At Social Return we have been giving some thought to people and organisations who provide services to our clients and the challenges currently faced. We are keen to do whatever we can to help and support you as you support our clients. With this in mind we intend hosting a forum for our providers to share challenges, ideas, thoughts and solutions.
