HOUSE OF LORDS’ RECEPTION FOR THE CHARITY WORKING FAMILIES

The House of Lords reception is a much-anticipated event in the Working Families’ calendar.  It provides a great opportunity to network with your peers (and Peers!) and to learn more about Working Families. The charity supports low income families facing discrimination at work with a free legal helpline, saving jobs and saving families who are struggling to be present parents and carers as well as committed workers. There has never been a more relevant cause, given rising unemployment and dire economic forecasting.

The charity is supported by many key figures in the financial and legal sectors as well as movers and shakers in the corporate world. The reception is hosted by a Peer, and a high profile individual is invited to speak. Past speakers include Baroness Helena Kennedy, Adair Turner, FSA Chairman and the writer and film producer Allison Pearson. 

They would love you to join them so you can hear about Working Famiiles’ vital work and consider joining the charity’s Changemaker network. Changemakers are loyal and engaged supporters who want to play a part in shaping the future of the world of work.  As a Changemaker, you will be given networking opportunities and the chance to be involved in research and policy.

Please RSVP by Thursday 23rd February 2012 at the latest if you are able to attend - Vicki Cooper, IBM Software Group UKI - vicki_cooper@uk.ibm.com

When: Thursday 22nd March 2012  6.30pm to 8.30 pm
