It has been ReachOut’s most successful year, which wouldn’t have been possible without our cohort of Project Leaders. The Leadership Programme has just finished its second year, so we came together with our team of over 50 Project Leaders to celebrate their achievements this year. We met at Mintel in London, with a group from the North-West travelling down so we could get everyone all together.
As everyone arrived, we encouraged the Project Leaders and the rest of the staff to write down their highlights from the year. Including:
“Completing my first year as a Project Leader, getting to know my mentees and building my confidence.”
“Seeing my mentees consistently support each other throughout the year.”
“A mentee who never did sport, doing sport!”
After an icebreaker game, we took our seats for some speeches and awards! ReachOut CEO Peter Blackwell kicked things off by talking about how the Leadership Programme has grown throughout the past couple of years. He had visited the majority of projects throughout the last year and was extremely impressed with the quality of sessions which were produced by the Project Leaders.
We also had speeches from Senior Project Leader in London, Anna Howard, and Project Leader in Manchester, Russell Scott.
“Being a Project Leader at ReachOut has been such a fantastic experience in more ways than I ever expected. I’ve developed so much both personally and professionally, in my delivery with young people, my ability to adapt to pretty much any situation as well as growing in confidence to speak to large groups of people and go with the flow.” – Anna
Next up we announced the following award-winners:
