The way this works - read this first

The point of this is to stimulate a bit of creative thinking between services, involve those who can't be on planning teams and stop us wasting the first meeting or two of a planning cycle staring at a blank piece of paper. Anyone can make a new post suggesting a possible service theme, why they think it would be good, and the kind of ideas and activities that might make it work. Rather than us all having the login details for the blog and potentially messing up each others stuff, email your suggestion to thewheelybin@blueyonder.co.uk and I will paste it faithfully in as a new strand. Anyone else can obviously respond directly to the initial blog on any theme with thoughts, questions or creative suggestions (poems, songs, visual ideas, rituals, prayers, bible links etc.) that develop the theme. It would be nice if no-one made purely negative comments (apart from raising questions about how a particular idea/activity would work) as it is generally best to just wait and see which ideas take wings and fly and which don't without discouraging people from having ideas in the first place. Anyway - think bold, think free, enjoy.
