As part of the CandO team, we have a community engagement and coproduction worker who is always looking for opportunities to build professional relationships with other services. This enables us to spread the word about the support CandO provides and learn about other services so that our team can signpost effectively.

If you are a professional who would like to discuss how we can work with your organization to support adults in Gloucestershire, or if you are hosting an event that you would like us to attend, please contact cando@rethink.org

   Professional webinars
