3rd Briefing weekend: 15th - 17th June 

After some train delays, the whole team finally arrived in Leicester at Sarah’s house and we got to meet Charity for the first time. After a curry for dinner, we had a mini campfire outside. We arranged paper and twigs in the chimenea and thought our guiding skills were good enough to light the fire. But we had to concede defeat in the end. However, whilst we played a get to know you game, and we’d forgotten about the fire and had given up hope, it finally ignited.

On Saturday we started with an action plan before heading into town. We split off into pairs and got everything we needed to do really quickly. On the way back we stopped off at Morrisons to stock up on supplies. After lunch we started to plan our training for Malawi and put together lots of ice breakers and energizers. It all started to feel more real.

For dinner we had a chinese takeaway and had a great night trying on our Team Malawi knickers. The weekend got us even more excited about our adventure and we can’t wait now.
