4. Process for Delivery of ChangeUp Projects

Renate gave an outline of the projects which are to be delivered by the partners and proposed that all those with an interest in a projects who hadn’t done so would let her know. She would then arrange an initial meeting with all those interested in delivering the project to meet and discuss how partners can contribute, decide what can be delivered for the budget and to bring a work schedule proposal back to the partners.

Paul asked that partners be given more time to consider which projects they would like to be involved in delivering and that partners would let Renate know by Friday, 24^th November.

We would then look in more detail at how projects are to be delivered at the next meeting.

 It was agreed that Renate would deliver the ‘online diary’ and web updating (total £1,800).
