I know there are more of us here than it feels! I'm in civil engineering at a consultancy in the Quayside. Would love to know what industries others are working in and whether there's appetite for a regular professional meetup.

Adeola from Sunderland — social work sector. Would absolutely come to a professional meetup. The North East African professional community is more connected than it looks, we just haven't had a central space until now.

Yewande from Glasgow. I did my first year in Newcastle before moving north. Great city. Would love to see a Glasgow-Newcastle link — we could do joint virtual events easily.
