We worked in the project with the school,
nursery and social enterprise. I specialised in the business side and led on the sales and marketing
strategy. I am pleased to say we smashed every single target - we attained the
highest monthly sales record by any team and
got 8 new businesses stocking our products. We recorded a tv interview on the
product and secured a free radio advertising space. We also provid-ed enough income to
cover all the unexpected extra costs that a new government policy had imposed,
so no women were let go. As you can
imagine I didn't want to leave! 
Jerome: Hey! Well apart from
university and all the coursework that comes with it which I'm submerged in at
the moment I do have a few interesting things to let you know about! Me and my
girlfriend Fiona went on holiday to Ireland for just shy of a week and learnt a
lot about the troubles in Belfast + how to make Guiness + that it does'nt
always rain in Ireland.
I also spent two weeks in Scotland helping
Ian and June with a bit of milking as they were trying to get to grips with a
new milking parlour. I've got exams
coming up but quite looking forward to finishing my 2nd year of university and
going to Uganda for a dose of sun and to see old friends. I also have a
placement year to look forward to and my 21st birthday celebrations :)
Visits from our son Laurence and friend Walt
Adam: Laurence enjoyed sharing his passion for football, volley ball. Walt enjoyed sharing his passion for gardening, helping children laugh and learn. They, Helen, I and several YWAM youth also really got into chess, too. I have adapted the game, re-naming it the Kingdom Game to help our base youth to learn to play it and related to its characters.
