Thank you to those who took the time out to complete our survey to evaluate ‘FYI’ – We will share the evaluation report once all the feedback is collated.

We always encourage you to share ‘FYI’ with your colleagues and families with whom you work.  Amongst the many ways you can do this is to share across your contacts on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, through your organisation’s page. We have added a step-by-step guide on how to do this on Page 3.

Our next edition will be in 3 weeks (Thursday 28^th April), due to the Easter break, so please submit all information by 26^th April.

In the meantime, have a well-earned break if you can. (Chocolate optional!)
