When on our travels we take snaps of things that catch our attention and/or seem like good ideas. So this is the start of our ‘great ideas’ gallery. If you have also seen great ideas, and would like to share them, then send them to us and we’ll publish them here.

The same company is committed to fundraising, as a way of team building, so it’s always having fun fundraising events. This is how it keeps a record, and makes its efforts visible and in everyone’s mind - so it’s a record, a reminder, and a public acknowledgement of the work done, and the funds raised - all in a simple visual way:

Any ‘great ideas’ to add?
