Argyll

Co-ordinator: Charlotte Lee

The Argyll network started in September 2003 and has been meeting every month since then. The group has grown over the 2 years and there are now 63 women listed in Argyll.  It has been interesting and encouraging to see the progress and career developments, achieved by the women coming to the meetings. We now meet at several locations in Argyll.
