e-GROUP
LAUNCHED FOR STAFF IN NORTH WEST
MPs'
assistants out in the constituencies rarely get a chance to
meet up, chat and share ideas. Some of us in the
North West have said that we feel somewhat remote from
Westminster, both physically and socially, so we have set
up an e-group to try to bring us closer together, virtually if
not physically (yet).
The
group is for all North West MPs' assistants, regardless
of political persuasion.
If you would
like to join this group, please
use this website's Feedback
Form:
- mention
"NW e-Group",
- send
us your full name, email address, constituency and
the name of the MP you work for.
- we
will get back to you to sign you up.
If
you are interested in trying this idea in another region, use
our Ask a Genius
facility and we'll put you in touch with someone who can
advise you.
