The drop-in surgery will help business understand what support is available locally for them, and also how they can start to look at future skills needs by engaging both with OxLEP but also local education providers.

The surgery at ACE is on 2nd May 1130-1430, no booking required.  For more information on this and the other surgeries around the county, check out this article.
