Alumni's Message
I am proud to mentor Nottingham because Nottingham became the first team in 5 yrs to run a residential training weekend for all its members. Hiring out Grantham in mid October, the team gave the most in depth training I have seen run by a single team, ensuring everyone was truly motivated and clued up on what Enactus is.
Not only that but Nottingham were mindful of their responsibility as one of the maost established teams to the rest of the Enactus community, inviting other teams such as Nottingham Trent, Leicester, Loughborough and Lincoln. Often teams just focus on a small number of members and ensuring they get the most from Enactus. Nottingham made me proud by focusing on every single one of their members, and the wider programme.
Finally – the long term planning and thinking that has gone into this year is unprecedented in the UK by any team. 18-30 months from now these projects will bear fruit, as Nottingham have truly realised that you can’t change peoples’ lives in just a few months – a lasting solution that genuinely transforms their lives usually takes years.
A message to Enactus UK to reconoise our teams efforts to far this year.
