How good are your communication skills?
This month we welcome Dr Reka Jablonkai, Senior Lecturer in Applied Linguistics at the University of Bath. You will know her as Reka - the one in the band.
She will be leading a ‘Game for inclusivity’. “You will play a simulation game that encourages you to (re)consider your communication, assumptions, and expectations in different situations.”
Any more than that she will not say as it will ruin the fun. The only way to find out more is to come.
About The Sunday Alternative
If you're looking for a good time, look no further than The Sunday Alternative! We're a bunch of secular legends who meet monthly in Reading to celebrate life.We're about Living Better, Helping Often, and Wondering More, and we do it for one reason only - to make the most of this one life we've got. We're a diverse bunch of characters, so you're bound to meet some cracking new mates.
Our mornings are chock-a-block with singing, games, interesting chats, and scoffing cake. Plus, it's inclusive - we welcome anyone, regardless of age or background. It won't cost you a penny, if pennies are hard to come by, as we run entirely on donations.
If you're feeling peckish, we've got that covered too. Come early - the best way to meet new people - grab a cuppa, and tuck into some homemade vegan-friendly treats.
Doors open at 10:30 am for teas and chats. The Assembly begins at 11 am and ends at about 12:15 pm. Then more coffee and cakes until 1 pm. After we find a pub or a picnic in the park if the weather is kind.
