About this Event
Following on from the sell out Racial Equity: Network Dinners (#REND) launched by Chiltern Teaching School continued around the country in various places, and our inaugural event in Bristol last, we are delighted to confirm our 2nd REND event in Bristol.
The Racial Equity: Network Dinner (#REND) is an opportunity for people across the education sector who share and appreciate the importance of racial equity, to come together to celebrate, network and enjoy a delicious meal.
Our twist on previous events is that we are hosting a lunch event to enable people to relax on the Friday night after work and travel in the morning instead.
