Learn, collaborate and network with CIPD members and people professionals in Shropshire
As the Co-Chairs of the CIPD Shropshire Branch, we’re proud to be working alongside our brilliant volunteer committee to support our local community of people professionals.
Our goal is to drive the branch forward and bring fresh energy to everything we do, from our programme of events to how we engage with members across the county. Whether you’re just starting out in your career within the people profession or have years of experience under your belt, we’re here to offer meaningful opportunities to learn, connect, and grow. From webinars to informal networking sessions, we’re committed to making sure our branch offers something for everyone.
We’re passionate about championing better work and working lives, and we’d love to hear from you. Keep an eye on our monthly newsletter, come along to our events, and help shape the future of our branch. Let’s make it a space where ideas, insights, and support can flourish.

Our members rate their access to a local branch in their top three membership benefits. Come along to our branch events to discover other CIPD benefits. Explore the issues and trends impacting our profession. Network, learn and share ideas with people professionals in our area.
Our branch events and webinars are available to view and book on Eventbrite. We publicise our programme of activities via branch newsletters and on our LinkedIn group page, so please do interact with us and keep in touch. Our branch events are free to CIPD members.
We also maintain strong links with the other CIPD branches in the Midlands, which gives our CIPD members access to further regional events and opportunities to network with members from other neighbouring branches. In addition, we have been building strong links with providers of CIPD-accredited courses in Shropshire, including local colleges and universities.
CIPD Shropshire is run by a volunteer committee of enthusiastic HR, L&D and OD practitioners and student members and supported by a team from the CIPD head office. Committee members are directly involved with the planning and running of branch events, giving them great opportunities to collaborate with others, develop new skills and keep updated with CIPD good practice and current guidance.
If you would like to learn more about the committee and any current volunteer vacancies, please come and have a chat with us at our next event where committee members can be identified by their rainbow lanyards, or email us.
With workshops, round tables, panel discussions and expert speakers, our thought-provoking events cover everything our community needs. Network, learn and stay up to date.
