Great night on Thursday 27 November at the Best of Farnham business evening which was held at Mahaan's Indian Restaurant. The meal was delicious and the company, formed of local business people, was interesting and convivial.
I was invited by Martin Davidge-Stinger to make sketches of the speaker Penny Power . It was rather nerve wracking, but buoyed by adrenalin and encouragement from Martin, I had ago and produced two pencil sketches during the the meal. Later we gave these drawings and an earlier painted sketch to Penny.
The speaker Penny Power @pennypower was very warm and approachable . She had been successful with founding Academy which was a forerunner to Linkedin and Facebook. Now she is trying to get some interesting youth apprenticeship initiatives formed and had been discussing her ideas with Lord Young earlier in the House. I was impressed by her positive energy and her practical 'win win' common sense ideas which we really need to implement and support.
