Preparation…

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

Wow - it’s a long time since the last update!

We’ve had lots of meetings, paperwork and planning over the last few weeks. Most of the meetings were just too complicated to report on! 

Yesterday Kay was at a meeting in London with Spring Harvest looking at the way we help children with Special needs - it was a good meeting!

The rest of this week is a mix of things…..risk assessment and special needs care plans ready for the camps, along with preparing the teaching for week one. We are helping with the “impact” week on the Hamilton Estate here in Leicester, organised by Hope Hamilton Church. We are helping with the Kids Zone mornings by doing the story/meeting bit at the end of each morning on Thursday and Friday.

This evening was the final set up for camp - which starts on Sunday. All the tents went up in record time….photos below! We had a huge team of people from the church there working really hard to make the site habitable and safe. It was getting dark when we left and people were still there cleaning and clearing - amazing!
