This event is being held at the stunning Met Office in Exeter from 5.30pm to 7.30pm.  The cost is just £5 members, £10 non members.  As well as fascinating speakers and an optional tour of the Opps centre there will be time for networking with fellow tourism

Why should you come?  Well to find out more about what the Met Office can do for you, how CPD can help your career, it’s a bargain, it will be informative and fun, there will be food, what else would you be doing on a wet (bound to be) Tuesday evening in February!
