(Some of) What we did this week…
- Debriefed meals in Norwich and Belfast last weekend! The mosaic-making workshop led by Re-Future Collective in Norwich was a huge success, and we received some great feedback from the event 🥗
- Andrew met his deadline to complete a final draft of the annual report, and sent it off to a graphic designer 🎉
- Rhiannon has been working on funding applications for the Sir Halley Stewart Trust and National Lottery Awards for All 📝
- We’re approaching the final phase of our pro-bono support with Nice and Serious, a creative agency we’ve been working with over the past year, so Hannah has been working with them to co-design some social media posts to promote the handbook and our supporter donation model 🚀
- Celia has been taking some well-earned annual leave this week 🥰
