Derbyshire Time Swap Digital Launch – Monday 22nd May

Recently, Derbyshire Time Swap were delighted to hold a face-to-face launch at The Strutts Centre in Belper.
 
The event consisted of talks from members of our team, alongside displays and chats from some fantastic time swap members. We also showcased our new Time Swap video.
 
A huge thanks to everybody who came along and helped out!
 
Whilst we had a tremendous turnout, we realise that not everybody who is interested in Time Swap was able to attend. So we are delighted to announce we will be hosting a digital launch event on Monday the 22nd of May at 11am on Microsoft Teams.
 
The event will follow a similar format to our face to face event and will be a fantastic opportunity to meet the team and learn more about Derbyshire Time Swap.
 
Everybody is welcome! Please book your spot using the link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/626978729257
