AGM today and feedback from You Matter

Welcome to our AGM today, 2-4pm at St Peter's Hall, Newlyn, not too much talking and tea and cake!!

Joseph was 21 on Tuesday and Colin and I and others had many conversations replanning our schedule as 4 dancers were ill, i was ill till the day and George was ill on the day!
However "show must go on" and thanks to everyones confidence, flexibility and George sending us 3 recordings - we made it!
I was asked to introduce us and this time thought i should take the opportunity to speak on some of the things close to my heart and behind our ethos and development, so chose Inclusion, Labels and Vulnerability, with a few short stories/examples to illustrate them. We also had a good short questions and answers and a friend kindly took around our new "comments" book.

So we scored 76% on a "very effective" presentation on their evaluations ( so felt i had a mark to compare with my daughter at uni!!)

The performers did very well, thank you to you all!

A few of the comments:
