At Bournemouth group, we were visited by Steve Harris from the BBC who was there to interview some team and young people as we are finalists for the BBC Solent Make a Difference Award for the Community Group category (woo!). Steve got to learn more about our project and get to know what the project means to the team and young people! A big thank you to whoever nominated us for this award and to Steve for visiting - we can't wait for the awards!
It was a beautiful summer day, the park was busy and vibrant, filled with happy laughter,families, friends and people just soaking up the atmosphere, having picnics and enjoying the day.
The stall had a constant stream of visitors for badges etc and information and glitter tattoos we were busy from start to finish. We had visits from some members who stopped and chatted a while and got glitter tattoos.
And the backdrop was the music of the wonderful young musicians who kept us entertained all day at the Bandstand and on the Main stage.
It really was a fab day.

At Poole group, the young people had a competition on who could make the most and high-quality thank you cards in order to win some stickers or a soft toy. The thank you cards get sent out every time we've received some funding or donations from individuals or organisations - having them come straight from the young people is so meaningful! The competition was tough but one young person got to walk away a winner!
