Glitterball

This week in Fellowship...

We didn't have John Travolta in white flares, but we did have an eardrum busting samba band. What am I talking about..? The Young Achievers Trust awards ceremony of course! Yours truly was presenting the community category and it was fantastic to be able to give these young people the congratulations and recognition they deserve for all their hard work.

Projects included a football club to engage hard to reach youngsters, an anti-bullying competition, a music event for homeless artists, and an ecology education programme for primary school children. All initiated and led by young people, who have often overcome their own difficult circumstances to achieve such fantastic results. But I don't want to give too much away yet, because there'll be more in our next Journal.

I am hoping that all of these young people will take up our offer to join the RSA, and we'll be looking for advisors and mentors for them amongst the Fellowship. Do email me laura.billings@rsa.org.uk if you'd like to know more about this.

In other news, we've been re-carpeted and re-painted on the 3rd floor. So apologies if you found it hard to contact us either side of the Easter break, but we were all either roaming the building like lost lambs searching for a spare workstation, or like me, working from home and consuming double the normal amount of tea. Everything is back in its proper place now.

Until next time...
