What a busy week for our team; I have 5 recruitment presentations plus a final review this week alone, with @CMcGeown_OBT kindly covering yet another presentation I couldn't manage to fit into my week.
@SMackenzie_OBT is has some final project delivery today too. It's all go!
Another varied day: while @AMartin_OBT is recruiting in Edinburgh, Chris is recruiting, and @SMackenzie_OBT is in a primary school while one of his groups deliver environmental and growing sessions in @HillheadPrimary
