Your Welfare
One of the objectives of NAGS is ‘to promote the welfare of members of the Association and take any appropriate action for the advancement and training of its members. ‘
In short this means that NAGS will always do it’s best to support you whether you need a quick chat with a colleague who understands the issues, or more hands-on support in the face of serious problems. County Welfare Officers are on hand to provide the former, whereas your National Officeholders (usually through the General Secretary) can provide support for more serious matters.
Further details on your Welfare Officers can be found below and General Secretary Rupert Barnes can be contacted on 01905 424292 or 07966 060304
Please do not hesitate to pick up the phone.
