Hi Everyone
Thank you very much indeed for all your help and support at yesterday’s event. As I said at the briefing we could not put on events like this without so many willing volunteers giving up their time to help – and your support on the day was invaluable.
Girlguiding Notts have certainly celebrated the centenary in style and I have personally appreciated how much support we have had from Scouting over the last 13 months.
With many thanks again

Hi All,
I just wanted to say a big thank you to all of you for the provision of services for our events this year. The vast majority have run very smoothly, in no small part to the expertise each of you deliver.
Please pass this on to the rest of your respective teams.
It’s been great working with you and I look forward to doing so again in 2011.
Kind Regards,
Nik
