SVS Friday Forum  was held on Friday 4th March 10 – 12 noon.  This month theme of the forum was around Southampton’s City of Culture bid 2025 – SO25

It was an opportunity to find out more about how CoC25 will benefit the city, the engagement and research involved in making the bid – to ensure relevance to everyone in the city, and opportunities to get involved at this point.  We also heard  from the chairs of the Volunteering and Health & Culture working groups – who some of you will no doubt recognise from their previous leadership roles in the city!
