Northern Soul!
With APSEs headquarters being based in Manchester many in our Northern Region see themselves as being the soul of the organisation, although other areas would argue this point.
It's there annual seminar and agm in Durham and I am invited along to do a slot on climate change. I have done better presentations but I am heartened by the level of debate that takes place and start to think that issue is starting to register amongst all those involved in service delivery, which is the message I wanted to get across.
To many people see it as something someone else deals with in the authority rather than something that everyone should be addressing.
