It is very easy to allow information to overwhelm you - so good organisation is key when delivering a programme. With that in mind, especially with two up coming Ajani programmes coming up that will overrun each other, making sure we do not double book any days is vital.

With that in mind, I have just spent over two hours completing three up to date diaries.
Firstly we have our own ongoing HMHB diary - which is both on my phone and my laptop (just in case). Full of events, meetings, programmes etc. it enables me to keep on top of all HMHB stuff.

But we also need to make sure each individual HMHB Ajani programme has its own diary too. We have personal training sessions, days out, special speakers, walks etc, as well as the delivery course itself. It can add up to over 25 different events over a seven session course - so vital to make sure nothing overlaps.

Ironically, in June we do actually have one day where we need to be careful. Thursday 21st June is going to be a day where we need to have careful organisation. We have our regular Izzwalkz, we have our Ajani programme with SHP (both of these are in the morning), and in the afternoon we have aa day out at the Islington Museum for both our SHP and HGMP Ajani users combined - as well as any walkers that may want to attend. The poor museum will not know what has hit them. But we need to ensure we have staff for all groups. Coordination required. It could easily have been missed if I had not kept good diary records though.

This is good practice for us. In July and August we propose to run four Ajani programs at the same time - using the funding from the Awards For All Lottery. It will last us for two months, so we need to ensure we get the best possible value and outcomes from it.

That to-do list is scary!!!!
