Here we go. One year ago, there was an idea. That idea has now grown up and had kids... a lot of kids.
On October the 30th and 31st, project leaders from LSE, SOAS, Imperial, Devon and St. Hildas got together for an intense 2 day training session consisting of:
Teambuilding training by the Centre of High Performance Development with Kieran and Matt,
Cooking with Imperial veteran team
Marketing with Amy Birchall
Fundraising with Tory
... and volunteering management, which we didn't have time for...
Special thanks to all those involved, the project leaders for coming... Amy, Kieran, Matt, Tory, Jessica, Verity, Louise, Hoxton Apprentice and St. Hildas for loaning us their space!
The event was a blast... a tiring blast. Unlike a year ago, when we were just like... here's the idea, make it happen, now we have a training weekend, volunteer manuals, solid connections with stakeholders and EXPERIENCE... we're using all that we've learn to start things much quicker, and hopefully overcoming the various challenges much more quickly....
Here's to the successful of FoodWorks in 2009-2010!
