Hi Anna, That's a great story. It's amazing the people you meet along the way. Sounds like "the right people" picked you up.
Re the 90 minute OS and your questions. - I heard about OS through my work in restorative practices (RP) and sometimes going down interesting "rabbit holes" of podcasts, etc. It immediately spoke to me as potentially more restorative than RP itself as it is so democratic and engaging. I've just been listening to podcasts and watching videos really. Probably should buy the book, but some of the resources on the internet are very thorough. - At present it's a standalone meeting, an attempt at averting antisocial behaviour this summer. That said, I have been told there may further steps if people agree that would be helpful - I haven't been labelling the event OS too much but, once I was asked to facilitate the meeting (between residents and professionals) I just thought it was made for OS - There is a local network coordinator who will do the welcome. Not really sure you'd call her a sponsor. What exactly is a sponsor? - The meeting is in a big gym, with loads of room - we will be about 20-25 people. - Given the short timeframe, I am only envisaging one starting time for breakout sessions. I am hoping there will be 4 or 5 of these. Can't predict obviously. - I am also hoping there will be further meetings with a bigger, wider invitation. This one has been a little more targeted. - Yes, I will be asking people to write down ideas, thoughts, suggestions and these will be shared with everyone, either through google forms or paper (some people may not have the best literacy skills as the issues are happening in an area of extreme disadvantage). Hope that gives you a better picture and looking forward to hearing any suggestions.
