I&DeA Peer Mentoring

Good news! I have been accepted onto the I&DeAs peer mentoring scheme, having attended an assessment centre in London earlier this week. I cannot tell you much more than that yet, although I am very excited and very pleased. It is an opportunity to help other councils, groups and councillors elsewhere in the country and I will be contacted when suitable work arises, which tends to be a day or two here and there and for some mentors there might be nothing for months. I suspect my involvement is likely to be around scrutiny and governance so if there are Labour council/lors or groups who need help with that, perhaps they will call me.
Watch this space!
