Hi,
I work with Colin Bryson at Newcastle University doing various Student-related activities.
Last year I was overseeing the Mentoring Scheme in Combined Honours. It was such a fantastic job working so closely with students and being able to be so receptive to their needs.

If mentoring is your thing, or you want to know more about what we're doing here, then drop me a line and I'd be more than happy to chat!
I look forward to meeting the members who join us here on the RAISE network. Hopefully many of you will be able to attend the Third Annual Conference in September as well. Drop me a line if you've got any questions about anything related to RAISE or the website.
Has it really been a whole year since I last posted a blog here???

Thank you for the welcome. I am pleased to be here. I have taken the plunge and started a discussion - well I've written something whether anyone will discuss it is another matter!
I look forward to this group growing and developing.

Julie Wintrup said… Hello Grace!! Thank you for your lovely message - but far away and obscure is order of the day now! I will start a thread or get chatting to others tonight, it's been a very busy week...

Hi Grace, thanks for your message. I got to know about RAISE at the SRHE conference last December when I met Colin and others from the group! Looking forward to continuing the interesting discussions we had then :-). Regards, Sarah
