Exhibition Presence

 

Hello again,

 

It’s been a pretty hectic week what with our very first presence at an exhibition – Action Sustainability in London on the 18thMarch at the Lords Cricket ground.

 

The trek there and back (all of 13 hours) took its toll not to mention being on call most of the day.

 

The day was quite an eye opener. The plethora of organizations involved, in one way or another, in making our planet a better place to live is incredible. All of them most definitely needed and providing extremely valuable services to the community and the environment.

 

Next week on the 23rdMarch will see us showcasing our work at the Showcase, Market and Sell event at the Walkers Stadium, Leicester. So if you are around do come in and see us.

 

With all this going on I’m packing to go away next week. Advance warning - the blogs may become infrequent depending on how much time I have available between clearing customs and overseeing distribution of one of Konnect9’s last containers abroad as we are hoping to reduce this aspect of our work.

 

I’ll try to keep you posted on events at home and abroad…..

 

In the meantime a call to all businesses out there – we need your surplus on the site. Remember charities can use just about anything for the people they work to help.
