Well, I've finally found some time to sit down and write a blog! I was let loose on my own on the 6th of July and have been getting on well so far, although my excitable mind is full of ideas which I'm not sure what to do with as yet!
The hand over weeks were good, the new team went to Scarborough on an intensive training week and some how Kate and Holly got us all to swim in the sea. In the rain. Fully clothed. Madness. I also spent a week meeting lots of new people and learning more about my role from Matt before he left. Did you know that the sabbatical team are also Trustees of the Union and Managing Directors of the Fox and Duck and Coffee Revolution?
So what have I been up to so far? Well, lots of little jobs and getting things started, but over the past two weeks I've been working with RAG on an 'Adopt a Charity' scheme which aims to pair up sports clubs or societies with local charities. Hopefully this will all be set up and ready for sign up at the start of term so watch this space as it develops…
You'll also be pleased to hear that I've started organising the Activities Fair where you'll be able to find out about and sign up for new societies, and see loads of performances on the concourse.
Over this summer I'll be planning lots of exciting new things and making our annual events bigger and better for you, so I'll blog again soon to give you a picture of my ideas for the year in store. Bring on the new year!
Enjoy your hols! Love Claire x
