The IEP is pleased to be hosting Connecting Wales: Bridging Communities and Opportunities – a virtual event tailored to Welsh organisations and anyone working to make a difference across Wales.

This FREE special event, hosted by IEP Fellow Kathryn Jellings FIEP, Director at 3SC, and member of the IEP Welsh Fellowship Advisory Board, is designed to inspire collaboration, foster innovation, and equip attendees with the tools they need to create lasting, positive change in their communities.

We are thrilled to be joined by Josh Miles, Director for Wales at the Learning and Work Institute, as our guest speaker. Josh will share insights from the ‘Get Britain Working’ White Paper, providing a roadmap for a Health, Work, and Skills Plan for Wales and discuss how these strategies, alongside collaborations with organisations like Serco, are reshaping employment support policies in Wales.

We will also be joined by Welsh Fellowship Advisory Board Members David Elsmere FIEP (Partnership Manager – Restart Scheme Wales at Serco), Libby Duo FIEP (Strategic Manager Skills & Employability at Conwy County Borough Council), Ian Ross FIEP (Chief Executive at Whitehead Ross Consulting Ltd) and Gareth Matthews FIEP (Director at Itec Training Solutions Ltd), who will lead interactive breakout sessions and provide an opportunity to showcase best practice, address key challenges in the sector, and brainstorm innovative solutions to drive meaningful outcomes and uplift Welsh communities.

The event offers the perfect opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals and organisations across Wales, gain fresh perspectives on employability strategies tailored to Welsh needs, build new partnerships and expand your professional network.

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to be part of this vital conversation to bridge the gaps in employability across Wales.
