Coffee Connect

Take part in this brilliantly simple way to connect with someone you might not normally encounter in your day-to-day work. Sometimes known as a Randomised Coffee Trial, in this session you will be randomly connected with another member of UKHSA staff and have the opportunity to take the discussion in any direction you wish (with some ‘talking points’ provided by us to use if you’d like to).

Randomised Coffee Trials help to build relationships, improve communication, encourage collaboration, share knowledge and ideas. So if you are missing those water-cooler chats, join us for Coffee Connect!

Please note these events are currently only open to UKHSA staff (details below); if you would like help facilitating a similar session in your patch then please contact libraries@kls.ukhsa.gov.uk
