SUMMARY:WPCC October Networking Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a welcoming\, relaxed networking breakfast at Oliveto\, with two informative presentations on issues affecting businesses and the workplace. \nDementia: It’s a Business Issue Too\nCharlotte Parsons\, Senior Associate in Private Client Services at Blanchards Bailey LLP and Dementia Friends Ambassador\, will be looking at considerations for businesses with regard to dementia\, both in relation to clients and staff. \nDementia can affect customers\, clients\, colleagues and carers\, often in ways that are not immediately visible. Charlotte will explore some of the everyday barriers people may experience and the simple changes businesses can make to communication\, customer service and their environment. Attendees will leave with practical ideas for making their organisation more welcoming\, accessible and dementia-aware. \nThis presentation will be highly valuable to any working-age professional\, especially senior leadership and decision-makers in business. There are close to one million people living with dementia in the UK in 2026. Leading Alzheimer’s research charities predict this could exceed 1.4 million by 2040. \nAI Workplace Productivity & Process Automation Skills\nAI is developing rapidly and changing how businesses operate. Emma Moore\, Head of Business Development and Marketing at Cosmic\, will look at how practical digital skills training can improve productivity and make everyday work more efficient. \nShe will show you how to access AI workplace productivity and process automation training through Cosmic’s Level 3 Skills Bootcamps. The courses are fully funded for sole traders and heavily subsidised for employers through the UK Government’s Skills Bootcamps programme. She will also introduce a separate\, fully funded Google AI Professional Certificate. \nYour ticket includes a full English or vegetarian breakfast\, with hot and soft drinks. \nWPCC members: £15\nNon-members: £20 \nBooking is essential. We look forward to welcoming you to the event. \nOur thanks to Blanchards Bailey for sponsoring this event. \n \nInterested in sponsoring a future networking event and sharing your expertise with the local business community?
