Developing Intercultural Working Skills Workshop Update

Good Thursday afternoon to all from Bright Ideas Nottingham. I’m afraid The Network for Black Professionals’ Developing Intercultural Working Skills workshop on 8th June 2011 is now fully booked so we are not accepting any more booking forms. But we want to thank everyone that showed an interest in this workshop.

Get On Up Film On YouTube

The Get On Up film showing the event at the Hilton Hotel Nottingham on the 25th March 2010 is now available to watch on YouTube. This Get On Up film shows an event which brought together visible and non- visible BME community and voluntary groups with statutory and non — statutory organisations, also the film displays footage from BME community and voluntary groups made during a film making course as part of the Get on Up Project. These include Heri-kwetu, Muslim Women’s Organisation, Kamyabi Community Project and Nottingham Afghan Association.

Monday Meeting – Dan

 

Hello all! This Monday Meeting is with Dan, who was the person that kept you up dated on the website with everything that was going off at Bright Ideas. However he has now left us to pursue his dreams. He was a key member of the team and we are all missing him already! We all hope he continues to create new Bright Ideas! He gave us a few last words before he left for the Monday Meeting.
