The first TOPSIG gathering was at Marthrown of Mabie
About 20 interested people gathered in the wonderful location for a full weekend of activities and discussion about the formation of TOPSIG.
A practitioner from Hungary joined us and, after the weekend, decided to join IOL as an international member and be involved in TOPSIG.
The weather was brilliant all weekend and a full programme was followed with a few additions and some minor alterations to the proposed programme.
For information on how to become involved in TOPSIG contact Louise at IOL.
