The workgroup briefings are available as a video to watch or slides to scan through on the briefings tab of the website here: https://cccbr.org.uk/about/workgroups/recruitment-and-development/ if you were unable to join but are interested in the content.
Discussion ranged from how best to connect potential recruits with teaching towers from guild websites to the need for short videos to attract younger recruits and the importance of welcoming returning ringers who may be ‘rusty ringers’.

Our next Recruitment and Development workgroup briefing is on Sunday 17th May (also 8pm UK time) and will focus on Leadership and how we can support ringers to volunteer for responsibility with confidence.

We now have a mailing list so anyone who has previously asked to receive the invitation will receive the invitation again but you can be added to the mailing list by going to https://cccbr.info/rdbriefings
The Teams link will be sent on 3rd May to everyone in the mailing list.

The briefing will again be recorded so that slides and recording can both be found on the website afterwards.

Looking forward to the discussions! If you have suggestions for a speaker or topic, feel free to get in touch (rrratcccbrdotorgdotuk).

Where can I find recordings of past sessions - the CC YouTube channel only seems to have the marketing presentation?

Apologies if I have missed something.
