Tomorrow is an auspicious day at THT. Indeed it is special enough to warrant a departure from the usual Friday-only blog post policy. The reason tomorrow is special is not because it is the birthday of Lee Thompson from Madness, or the anniversary of the Jarrow March (thank-you Wikipedia) but because it heralds the long-awaited arrival of THT's Big Day In...
The idea behind The Big Day In... is simple enough. We spend our working lives talking about how being at the heart of neighbourhoods is the key to what we do, so for the 5th of October we are going to exemplify that by taking the entire THT staff into our neighbourhoods and putting them to work.
The projects were all suggested and voted for by tenants - all we asked was that they were achievable in a limited period of time and that they could be achieved by a team of THT staff. There are 20 projects in total ranging from DIY courses to shopping services for the elderly and tomorrow we will be documenting how they go and giving feedback on Twitter and Facebook to keep you updated.
We'd love some encouragement, so get commenting, tweeting and posting! If you see any of us around Trafford, don't be afraid to offer us cups of tea and biscuits!
