The Sustainable Events Show is first show of its kind.
Date: 24th November 2023 Time: 12pm - 1pm UK Time Location: Online Sign up here: https://www.universe.com/events/3GZ479 Description: Parents and Carers in Performing Arts co-founders and co-CEO’s Cassie Raine and Anna Ehnold-Danailov will be sharing insights from their research and discussing how we can better support carers within the live music industry. They’ll be talking about ‘hidden carers,’ an important (and likely growing) minority of people working in music who have caring responsibilities for people who are not children (and who sometimes have children to care for as well), and sharing examples of what best practice can look like for carers, sharing tips and strategies for support. They would also love to hear from you about your experiences and there will be an opportunity for questions and discussions.
