“GDPR basics – getting yourself ready” is a two hour briefing/workshop to help you get up to speed.

Places are limited. Booking essential. £20 per person (for VANEL member organisations) or £30 for non-members. If necessary we may restrict numbers of people attending from one organisation. Book directly with me (Karl Elliott – karl@vanel.org.uk)

Each session takes place at VANEL offices in Grimsby and is delivered by Karl Elliott, Development Manager at VANEL (who is leading on establishing GDPR compliance for VANEL).

Please bear in mind that this is not a legal briefing. This is a briefing from within the voluntary sector trying to interpret GDPR in a practical way so that you are clearer on how if affects your own organisation. You’ll still need to read available information, advise and guidance from other sources and make your own judgements on what is best for your organisations. But hopefully we can provide useful guidance as you do this.

All the details about the session are here.
