Whitby Away Day
Whitby Wanderers...
Following a successful funding bid to the TARA Capacity Building
Fund, the Black Minority Ethnic (BME) TARA was awarded £498.
The group applied for money to fund an ‘Away Day’ to improve group
relations and strengthen teamwork.
The BME TARA committee worked together with St Leger Homes’
Diversity Team members Vivien Binks, Heather Saunders and Michaela
Heaps to create a programme for the day. It was decided that
the group would travel to Whitby where they would participate in a
team building exercise.
During the day the TARA members split into smaller groups and two
activities were undertaken. The first of these was a fun
treasure trail where groups could work together and develop skills
such as a better knowledge of English, self-esteem and
confidence. The second part of the challenge was a photo
competition where members had to take photographs of various things
around Whitby. As you can see from the photos there were some
excellent results!
