💙 You can still contact us (see below) and we are more than happy to book video call appointments.⁠
💙 Our AGM has been rescheduled to Wednesday, 20th October.⁠
💙 We are holding off on planning more Picton Connect events until we are closer to moving to Level 1.
💙 We will continue providing ongoing updates and sharing resources through our social media and website. ⁠
