ASYE drop-in sessions
The drop-in sessions are for ASYE leads/co-ordinators only. We operate on a ‘open door’ basis, you can join whenever you want to and stay for as long as you want to. It’s a space to ask anything you’d like clarification on about the ASYE programme, or you can just listen to what other people are asking and discussing.
All drop in sessions are 10:00-12:00:
