Notes:

• May event planning

    • Ask people to do their own streets/neighbours

  • Activities:
    • A week in the life – post-its for ideas

    • Photos and talk about building, as an attraction point
    • Organization:
      • Send risk assessment, assume we will have access
      • What do we need?
        • Ask neighbours: FoTGP mailing list; Google sheet with stuff we need and who has what?
      • Need to padlock the gate open
      • Bad weather – chances are people won’t come if it’s bad. David has a gazebo he can bring. Do it unless it’s terrible.
      • How do we want to elicit and record peoples ideas?
        • Get people to scan QR code, but also print surveys
      • Have stuff both outside and inside to make ourselves visible, so we attract people walking by, and not just those coming to event
      • What do we want to promote (groups, events)?
        • FoTGP, RG
        • 14th june Park picnic (21 june: Hen17 Bruce Grove)
          • Kids face paint each other – FoTGP sponsors
          • Choir on 13 Sept instead?
          • 13, 20 Sept events
        • Do we want any tea? Music? Other?
          • Let neighbours know. And engage with them. Need a decent speaker.
          • Electricity?
        • What do we need to buy, make, borrow?
          • Gazebo? Table?
• AOB
  • September event
    • Dayal to email about application – saying we will apply assuming we can use yards and ground floor (only) for exhibition
    • Vanessa can reach out to Bambos, and others…
    • Review costs: Anything missing?
  • Meanwhile/immediate use of yard and building?
    • Do we see a way we could get approval to use?
  • RC First Aid Training
    • Face-to-face – they come to you (could we do in 100TG?) and we might need to contact to see availability
    • Wait for face-to-face or do online? Do online individually.
    • Once we have access to building go for a face-to-face one, and offer to other neighbours (or volunteers)
