As @Deborah-SSi is going to be fairy busy with other SSiW work from now on, I’m going to be taking over the weekly email.
My foremost concern is to make sure I am fully up to date with dates and locations for all the SSiW meet-ups happening all over the globe, so that I may pass the correct information on to all our learners. Deborah has done an excellent job of gathering info and passing it on to me, but I thought I’d give myself a week, before the next email, to double and triple check that all the info I have is correct and up to date.
So if you are an organiser or coordinator of a meet-up, please check the following list and update me in this thread if needed.
In the future, please tag or PM me with any new or additional info. Diolch yn fawr iawn!
