Hugh is a
sort of human Swiss Army knife. He took the scenic route through his

communication skills, many of which get applied in Just1 and other
activities: letters, posters, press releases, this and other webpages and
websites, broadcasts, articles, and public talks.

The aims of Just1 StandUps?
For those of you who like that sort of thing,
here's the sort of thing you'll like - though you may find they bring a bit
of a difference. Click here to find some aims and
purposes. Funding of Just1 StandUps?
Deliberately, hardly any. The
activities are low-cost: a bit of paper mailing; a lot of nudging by e-mail;
some phone calls. There's no mass distribution of material, because this is
available to download and print as you want. And Hugh's time is free - a
gift to everyone.
 As
in 2008, a little funding comes from Hugh's personal pocket as a pensioner.
And this year, any fees from Hugh's public speaking have gone into the
StandUp pot. Like the Queen, he never discusses money, but very many thanks to: Tadley CSRF;
Ockham WI; Probus Old Beaconsfield; Wokingham Council Older People's Groups;
Hampshire Blind meeting at Holy Trinity Aldershot; Woking Maybury Women's
Club; Chiltern U3A; West Byfleet Evergreen Club; Wokingham U3A;
Wantage CWL, and
others. |
