Ballinasloe Area Remote Working Survey
In 2020, after Covid forced so many people to work from home, we ran the first survey about remote work in Ballinasloe. A year later a revised survey has been launched. We are interested to receive your feedback and would kindly ask as many people as possible to complete the short 3 minute survey. We will post the results in future Facebook updates and in Ballinasloe Life Magazine.
To complete the survey simply scan the QR code or follow the link. Thank you !

Hi All,
I hope you are all keeping well and safe.
Wanted to let you know about a 'National' Remote Together event Grow Remote has organised.
https://hopin.com/events/remotetogether
It is quite modest however, it will be an hour, 11am to 12pm, Thursday 26th aimed at our workforce who have pivoted to remote. We want to acknowledge how challenging the past year has been while sharing thought leaders' insights on how to make remote working work for you.
The first hour will have some snappy themes and some wellness, then break out slots of 15 minutes on different topics for remote working, that folks can select.
After the wrap up, folks can stay up to 1pm if they wish to network or if they wish to stay plugged in while working together for the hour.
If you think it is a good idea, we would love you to come along or share with your teams or others for whom it could be helpful.
We are coming up on our 3rd Grow Remote Jobs Club meetup this coming week welcoming Karen Kinsella from HubSpot and Frank O'Mahony
Signup via Eventbrite - event scheduled for Thursday November 12th, 6:30-8pm IST (i.e. Irish Time)
Skills for finding a remote job & insights from remote teams
Please share with anyone you know on the job hunt (insights are useful outside remote)
These are warm and friendly meetups, there is no such thing as a silly question and you get to hear from people already in these roles

Hi all, starting to use Ballinasloe Grow Remote page on Facebook for sharing updates and interaction. I think it is a more engaging platform for the group however new group members will sign in to Changex first. Join us on Facebook and help grow our local Ballinasloe chapter. Remote working is more than an idea or a buzzword now, it is the new norm with 94% respondents in NUIG survey telling us they want to continue at least one day a week. Help us to grow remote working in our area and to support the welfare of Remote workers and training to support new entrants to remote work. See you on Facebook 👍
Worth a look for anyone wanting to start off learning digital skills to get ready to work remotely ✅

Calling Ballinasloe Town, County and Hinterland !
We hope this note finds you and your family well during these challenging days.
As a result of Covid-19, many people who are fortunate enough to still be in employment, are now working from home.
We have seen people move back to Ballinasloe town and it's hinterland, to work remotely and deal with the learnings that have arisen with that change.
Now we are keen to look at how we move forward in a more meaningful with with remote working locally.
Please take this short survey and share with your own network that is Ballinasloe based.
This short survey takes 2 minutes to complete !
Thank you for taking the time ...
