The KAMG Group Night Welcome Table
Do you sometimes feel a bit of an ‘outsider’ at Group nights, especially if there’s no-one you recognise when you get there? Whether you're a newcomer or you’ve been a member for years, join Matt Pounds and Paul Chambers at the Welcome Table - at the back of the room with a red table cloth. Come and say hi and stay for a chat.
