Recommendations for Meyler Campbell Mastered

We’ve got some fantastic syndicates forming at the moment but we are currently very short on women participants. As you know our approach to Mastered syndicate formation is to try to ensure as much as possible that each syndicate is made up of people with a broad palette of experience and from a range of backgrounds. As always we would of course be delighted to welcome anyone you recommend who would benefit from the Programme and who would enrich the community, please encourage anyone you think might be interested to get in touch, we would love to hear from them.
