Make the most of membership

This is your chance to ask questions, share ideas, and get the most from your Socitm membership.

Whether you want to know more about training and courses, connecting with peers for learning, managing your account, or our plans for the 40th anniversary, this session is designed to support you.

We’ll also update you on changes to membership packages, benchmarking opportunities, and how we’re helping members with local government reorganisation.

This is an open, informal space – so bring your questions, and we’ll do our best to answer them.
