Quality Q&A with the "very quotable" Tim Farron MP
Thanks to everyone who joined us for our third online Curious Conversation event last month. It proved to be another lively, informative and well-attended virtual Q&A session with Liberal Democrat MP and former party leader Tim Farron (who'd kindly agreed to return after his appearance at our AGM in November left everyone wanting more!). The session was brilliantly hosted again by our very own Lucy Buck, and afterwards lots of people stayed behind to continue chatting informally. For those who couldn't make it, we are hoping to make the Zoom recording available soon.
