To complement our  Impact and Improvement training programme, we've launched online office hours! Drop us a line (officehours@ymcageorgewilliams.uk) if you'd like to schedule a call to chat through your evaluation challenges and questions about continuous quality improvement. Please provide a brief summary of your question or the thought you’d like support working through, and a member of our team will get in touch to finalise a time.
