Festive & Casual Out of Office LGBTQ networking

Bored with the holidays before they start? We're getting together on Friday 27th December at a pop-up Out of Office at The Hudson, in the County Hotel for a bit of LGBTQ respite from the festive season. We hosted an impromptu OoO there last year, which was a great success, so we're doing the same again this year, with more than a couple of hours' notice!

We're not asking for payment for the usual complimentary starter drinks, because we're on holiday too and frankly CBA with badges and guest lists. Just come along and meet some hopefully familiar faces. But please DO book a free ticket on Eventbrite, so we can keep an eye out for you. Just to be clear, it will be a pay for your own drinks bar.

Please bring along friends and allies if you'd like to.

Just as a reminder, Out of Office is an informal networking event designed exclusively for LGBTQ professionals and allies, and we aim for relaxed networking with an amazing bunch of like-minded individuals.

Forget about those stuffy speeches and formal presentations because our event is all about fostering a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Picture yourself surrounded by friendly faces in a vibrant location where you'll have the chance to connect with fellow professionals and workers. It's all about getting those conversations flowing!

Worried about attending alone? Don't be! Out of Office is the ideal place to step out of your comfort zone, even if you consider yourself a bit on the shy side. We guarantee that there will always be someone ready to introduce you to new people and make you feel right at home.

LinkedIn personal branding company ExecSpeak® is sponsoring this, along with the usual organisers, PR firm Reeves. As always, we're guided by Matt Bratton at the CBI. Their aim is simple: to bring back the traditional essence of networking, where real-time communication takes centre stage. After all, it's the connections we make that truly matter.

Please sign up via Eventbrite, so we can keep an eye out for you.

Hope you can make it - we look forward to seeing you.
