What events are coming up over the next 10 days for communicators to attend? Here’s my weekly look at what’s on, so you can plan your time.
Every Sunday I take a look at upcoming awards, courses, conferences and events and publish ‘What’s on this week‘.
If you’d like to plan further ahead, see the comms calendar as it goes until the end of the year and beyond. If you have something to add to the list, do please get in touch.

CIPR North West will also be hosting an event on the Ethics of Persuasion in Manchester on 17 September and CIPR Corporate and Financial Group will host a breakfast briefing on 25 September in the City (London), focusing on new skills and ethics for corporate communicators.
