The ball is rolling in regards to getting my PVG finalised. Hoping to have everything up and running by next weekend at the latest.
The excitement of finally getting going is building, with Craig emailing through opportunities continuously for us to get involved with. The most recent being a chance to help out at a with Active Stirling and Scottish Disability Sport on November 8th. Something that interests me greatly, with the role being to just assist around the event and make myself useful, this offers me a brilliant chance to gain an insight into how these things are run. How the people involved find such events, in terms of the sort of activities offered to the participants, and generally what it entails when organising such an event. Something that I am looking forward to already.
With the delayed start to my actual placement, there isn’t much more going on for me at the moment in terms of news. However, the patience showed by Craig has been reassuring. With the endless events and opportunities for me to gain the experience I’m after, I am not too worried about the fact I am yet to clock any of the required hours to complete the module. Again, extremely excited to start this unique experience with Active Stirling.
Hoping to have more to write about in the coming weeks,
Tom.
Hi Tom, Thank you for sharing your thoughts although you haven’t started your work placement yet. I am glad that you have learned a number of upcoming activities and you are excited about the opportunities. Since you have been in a high-performance setting, I think it is a really good opportunity to experience other sport settings. I also do look forward to hearing what you learn, experience, and offer to them! -Romie
