Why should I join?

TSPA offers it’s members an annual workshop series, which include 4x webinars (one a term) on topics that are relevant to our work. These are recorded and circulated for anyone unable to watch them live.

We strive to keep our membership costs affordable and have members feel that they are getting value. Membership is paid annually.
We are a passionate and inclusive community who are always looking at ways to connect and support our members. Our committee is always open to feedback and new committee members joining.
