Next meeting: Thursday, November 29 7pm

The recently revitalised Brighton and Sussex branch is going from strength to strength – which is just as well in these troubled times.

Our next meeting is on Thursday, November 29, and there is much to talk about. How can we best support our colleagues in Johnston Press following the company's controversial sale? How can we help freelances maximise their income? How can we give young journalists starting out on their careers the help and training they deserve? We've got a number of suggestions, but we'd really like to know what you think.

As usual, the idea is to gather at the Craft Beer Co pub in Upper North Street, Brighton, from 7pm, with the meeting itself starting at 7.30.

If you're slightly nervous at the thought of walking into a room full of strangers, don't worry. We're a friendly lot who are more interested in making new friends than debating tedious motions for hours on end. And parents may be interested to note that we are now able to offer a contribution of up to £30 towards childcare costs for those who wouldn’t have been able to get there otherwise.

Hope to see you there.

Brian Williams
