OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We are really pleased to be offering two networking events this term on 13th November. These are a continuation of the networking events, returning carers workshops and the on going programme of support aimed at those with caring responsibilities (which may include those caring for older relatives, dependants and people with disabilities) and those new to parenting (dads and mums, please come along). Our networking events are an informal opportunity to meet colleagues from across the University and to find out more about the support available for you.
Session 1
From 13:00 we will be answering your questions about support available for carers working in the University and exploring how we can build networks of support for University staff with different caring responsibilities. The event will be attended by Carers UK, who will be talking about the service they can provide to adult carers. This will be an informal opportunity to enjoy a hot drink and pastry while making connections with others.
This invitation is for session one for carers, information on session two can be found here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/networking-tea-for-new-parents-tickets-78025011911 come to one or come to both, we hope to see you there.
