Third Sector Dumfries and Galloway

Join us for Empowering Pathways — a key regional event bringing together third sector organisations, community initiatives, and employability partners across Dumfries and Galloway to explore how we can strengthen collaboration, unlock investment, and build a more connected employability landscape.
