Our Regional Representatives
Supporting our members across the UK by building community, answering questions and representing local voices at national level.
What is a Regional Representative?
Relationships are central to what we all do, and fostering positive, productive connections with our members and their communities, is something we wish to continue to develop more at the NCPS.
The Society recognises there are specific challenges experienced by practitioners and their clients at a regional level and is keen to better understand the realities of working in different local areas.
Our aim, over time, is to create a network of regional representatives across the UK, to be our eyes and ears on the ground informing us of the political, social and professional landscape unique to their local area. This information will enable us to shape policies and focus our activity in the right places.
