Activities
Gatherings made for getting to know one another
Seren is a place to meet people, share interests and build relationships over time. Some of what we are planning is social, some of it is quietly intellectual, and all of it is meant to leave room for conversation beyond the work.
We’d love you to join us!

What we are planning
Ways to come together
Reading
Book clubs and shared reading
Regular conversations around books chosen together, with room for different tastes and for those who only want to listen.
Outdoors
Gatherings and friendship
Walks, informal meet-ups and a members’ table for conversation and connection. These gatherings will offer opportunities to meet women from different backgrounds and build friendships over time.
Connection
Practical peer support
Sometimes a little help makes a difference. We’re developing opportunities to rehearse a presentation, receive feedback on an abstract, prepare for an interview, learn a useful tool or talk through an idea. Support will be clearly scoped and shaped by what members need and can offer.

meaning
Career conversations and mentorship
Honest conversations about working lives, opportunities and changing direction. We hope to connect women across professions and career stages to share experience and offer guidance, including those returning after time away or considering a new path.
