Making the freelance life work for you

Life as a freelancer can be a balancing act, and this panel discussion will feature a candid conversation between freelancers at different career stages about how they make the freelance life work for them. From managing time and money, to side hustles, to protecting your mental health: how do you not only survive as a freelancer, but thrive?  

Chaired by Rebecca Meredith, Training Liaison Manager for Wales at ScreenSkills. Speakers include Edward Russell, Ella Stockton and Joe Towns.

This event is presented in partnership with RTS Cymru Wales.
