Just a quickie to let you know the line-up of experts that we’ve managed to assemble for the hiremyparents dream team. I think we’ve covered everything but if you think there’s anyone else (you?) who’d be a great asset to the team, and help parents get the flexibility they need, then simply make a comment and we’ll see what we can do.
