Connect!

Do you support or research health and wellbeing? Or are you looking to connect with others working on health and wellbeing projects across our community and universities?

Join us at Connect! an event produced by Bath Spa University and the University of Bath designed to bring together researchers, creative practitioners, voluntary sector staff, social enterprises and members of the local community.

When: Thursday 28th November 1 - 3.30pm

(this will include an optional half an hour at the end for chats)

Where: Roseberry Road Studios, 25 – 28 Roseberry Road, Bath, BA2 3DX

We set up this event as we want to create spaces for people to come together from a variety of backgrounds and expertise to spark conversations and share ideas about issues that matter to them.

This edition will be around the broad topic of health and wellbeing, and there will be themed discussions within this such as creative health, green health and tech for health as well as friendly connecting and creative activities, chat and a light and tasty lunch from Bath Community Kitchen that will be served at 1pm.

If you are interested in making new connections, finding ways of working together or if you have an idea about how your work can connect with others in a different area to you, come along!
