I had often heard the phrase, ‘when the ones at the top look after everybody else, who looks after the ones at the top?' I hadn’t though really recognised this until I joined the Forum! The support, comradeship and sounding board the network provides is exactly what we all need! I would encourage anyone wondering, to take the plunge and join! It will open your mind to a different way of thinking I am sure!
