'Feel Good October' Festival of Activities is taking shape! (Planning meeting September 12th)

Here's a summary of our "Feel Good October" festival planning meeting from September 12th:

Festival Branding & Communication

We've decided to call our mental health initiative a "festival" rather than a program. We selected a clean, welcoming design for our materials. We'll use posters with QR codes linking to our website and create social media content to promote the event.

Registration Process

We're setting up a streamlined registration form that allows people to sign up for multiple activities at once. For the hand massage activity, we'll use a simple sign-up sheet at the event. Our registration system will be ready for testing by next Friday.

Activities Overview

We need brief descriptions from each facilitator explaining their activity and its wellbeing benefits. Our current line-up includes Aroma Touch & Reiki, Tapping with Tammy, Worry Dolls, Clowning, Music, Meditation, Rhythm and Movement, and Cooking workshops.

Sponsorship Approach

We developed a friendly pitch for potential sponsors that focuses on holistic wellbeing. We'll be reaching out to local businesses for support in the coming days.

Next Steps

Our follow-up meeting is scheduled for Friday, September 19th at 10:30am at QT. Before then, we need to confirm capacity limits for each activity and finalise our website content. The project is coming together nicely!

Getting Involved
