It is with some sadness that we announce our chairman for over ten years, Jonathan Reynolds has decided to stand down. Jonathan has put in a lot of hard work over the years which has ensured the continued success and growth of the SLA. We would all like to thank him for his expert guidance and hope he will continue to be part of the committee and society in the coming years.

Happy New Year! Based on feedback from members, the SLA is interested in developing opportunities for mentoring and coaching in 2023. We’d be keen to hear your views. The first part of this initiative is to conduct a ‘state of the nation’ survey to determine current levels of coaching and mentoring support within our community.  We are delighted to be supported in this by one of our sponsors, Red Tiger Talent.

Congratulations to Sarah Hitchcock, Chief Operating Officer at Geolyltix who was chosen by the committee as our winner of the Jon Walker Lifetime Achievement Award 2022.

Thanks to everyone who came along to our 20th anniversary celebration event on the 18th October 2022.

We welcomed over 80 delegates to our first in person event since 2019 and it was wonderful to catch up with faces from the past and lots of new members too.
