It has been a very busy year. Having two staff persons two days a week has pushed forward our projects and made me realise I wasn't imagining that there was too much work on the admin side for me alone. Various important things have kept Jan out of action for quite some time, but we were able to keep going with Nick and Beth available. The funny thing is, the bigger Aspiehelp gets, the more work is involved.... sometimes it seems as if we exist only to turn our own wheels!
This week, three of us are going to Dunedin to help launch our first new branch (by popular request) as they say.. There will be a radio interview, a newspaper interview, Meetings at the University of Otago, and a public meeting, plus some meetings with members and new members. Aspiehelp Dunedin now has its own Facebook page and welcomes new members. They will be running sausage sizzles to keep their funds keep pace with rent for premises etc, and they will contribute one Trustee to the Aspire Trust Board.
Exciting times!
