@sue_manns and @marymac102_mary have shared with us why they enjoy our events. Let us know why you do too by retweeting or using #thoughtexchange. We'd love to hear from you so that we can grow our event spaces for all those who attend!
Our first #thoughtexchange has launched with the theme: Why did you get involved with Women in Planning? We asked Committee members to kick start the conversation and we'd love to hear your thoughts! #womeninplanning

Oops, sorry about the typo on our last tweet, it's Friday aftrnoon and we could do with a glass of wine! It was meant to read "...thinking about what it takes to be a good leader."
This weeks national events included a talk w/ @Bristol_Jane, author of "The Women Who Built Bristol" and a seminar w/ @_LouDrake_ thinking out what it takes to be a good leader. Thank you to both & to those who attended! Follow @WomeninPlanning to find out about our next events!
In support of #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, what are you doing this weekend to support the #BeKind theme?
Will it be for yourself (a walk, taking the time to enjoy your morning coffee...) or will it be for someone else (asking if someone is okay, making someone a cup of tea...)?
Today marks the start of Mental Health Awareness Week. This year's theme is kindness:
