Stories of Change

Celebrating Journeys & Inspiring Futures

Join us at the National Library of Scotland for an inspiring afternoon of networking and storytelling, as we hear first-hand accounts from ethnic minority individuals whose lives and wellbeing have been impacted by employability services and support.

This event is part of the DataKirk Talent Summit fringe programme and will showcase how real experiences can influence and improve future service design.

We especially welcome employers, service providers, and stakeholders who want to better understand the lived experiences behind employability support and contribute to more inclusive, effective services.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
