11. “When I opened the good for nothing nottingham email I looked
upwards thankfully & sighed with relief. Help was here”
“it was a heart-exploding, super-uplifting experience. I was
gifted with loads of ideas, enthusiasm, energy and a kick in
the big girls pants to keep on keeping on”
“we could all stand with two social entrepreneurs who have
devoted a large part of their life to projects driven by the sole
desire to improve the way we do things”
“be prepared to experiment, to collaborate, to talk to total
strangers”

12. “ten weeks ago gfn nottingham didn’t exist. I had no idea who
I was going to collaborate with. I didn’t know if nottingham
would like what it saw with gfnnotts. And now with four days
to go?
I feel like I’m sat in an aeroplane about to do a skydive.
Except it’s not a solo jump. I’m with a crew who are right
there with me. Who during the freefall will probably do some
kind of kick-ass acrobatic formations. I’ve no idea what it’ll
look like but I’m pretty sure we’ll be smiling when we land”
“I never knew what I was really good for.
Turns out I’m good for nothing and proud of it”
