Well hello, apologies this is my first blog as i've been extremely busy. I am the UK Events intern and have been doing all sorts. The events/celebrity team only has 5 people in with lots of things to organise. So the events i have been/am involved in organising are: Carnaby Big Gigs, Barnardo's Annual Fundraising Ball 2008- "Bollywood Nights", Royal Mail Group Launch, BGC Charity Day, Music in the Park, Celebrity Christmas Reception, National Transport Awards and finally World Wedding Dress Day 2008!which i've been concentrating on recently as it is on 29th august, i hope you can all get involved, check out: www.barnardos.org.uk/weddingdress So the tasks that I have had to do for all these events have been very varied, from sending out request for auction prizes, contacting people for publicity, organising waste bins to organising guest list on the door and menu tasting!so i'm having a great time, although am really busy as i am being counted as part of the team completely adn am being trusted to do all sorts of things - none of this general dogs body malarky!
so anyone reading this i would highly recommend doing a Barnardo's internship to you as it is a fantastic expereince where you meet great people and learn a lot about the charity sector.
don't forget to don your wedding gear in just over a week!!!
Lucy (UK Events Volunteer Intern)
