Central London Branch

Welcome to our branch area

Thank you for visiting our branch page. We at the Central London Branch are part of a vibrant community of people professionals who are uniquely placed in the heart of one of the most exciting cities in the world!

As a branch we're committed to providing meaningful communities and events that help you transform your workplaces, and the people who make them up. We care about our members and their wellbeing and have dedicated our events to support our ever-growing community. We have more than 3,500 members across Central London.

Our goal, as your CIPD Central London Branch, is to provide accessible, valuable and innovative events for you. Every event should provide you with actionable insights that you can bring into your life and into your workplace.

We exist simply to make a positive difference in the world of work.

The Central London Branch is passionate about engaging as many members across the people profession as we can, and this year we will pay particular attention to:

Freelancers and independent consultants: we run regular networking events and meetings to support these members.
Students: we partner with some of Central London’s finest institutions to maximise our reach and collaborate with student members.

Special interest groups

We have strategic interest groups in the following spaces:

Equality, diversity, inclusion and belonging

Led by our Co-Chair Woosh Raza, who identifies as both a person of colour and a member of the LGBT+ community, we are passionate about making a positive difference to foster a sense of inclusion and belonging for all.

Health and wellbeing

Led by our Co-Chair Charlotte Brownlee, we want to make sure we are looking after our members, many of whom have a responsibility for wellbeing within their organisations. As a profession and certainly after the last 18 months, we need to make sure we aren’t pouring from an empty cup. Our wellbeing events are focused on both our organisation and ourselves, as people professionals.
