We have had another amazing spring,with just so much going on. Joan started her 'Soup Club' and Alistair became king of video recycling. A terrific number of people declared support for the project and committed to fund raising on our behalf and new enquiries have come in on almost a daily basis. We are very close to building our new classroom, are exploring the idea of setting up our first social enterprise, can now see a shape emerging where the outdoor performance space will be and as if that weren't enough we have just come back from our first residential.
Fourteen of us spent the week,helping with preparations for an outdoor opera festival in Hampshire. The venue was West Green House near Hook, a wonderful house and garden and home to an annual festival. We travelled into a surreal world and were embraced. Everyone rose to it, there were fourteen of us and we were everywhere. At the end of the week, there were tears and a big invite to come back.
As we drove away, there was a buzz and miles of shared laughter later a awareness of shared pride in our achievement.
