A memorable fortnight for We Do Ideas

It's been a busy few weeks for Young Foundation venture We Do Ideas. Since concluding their successful pilot with Northampton University, the We do Ideas team have been reviewing and consolidating their ideation experiences in order to produce an Ideation Toolkit. We Do Ideas also saw a key development this fortnight in the shape of official 'independent business' status- We Do Ideas Ltd is now an official independent business.

Additionally, We Do Ideas held a lecture for budding entrepreneurs at Kings College London College to raise awareness of Social Enterprise models. In the past couple of weeks, members of the team have also met with The Prime Minister and HRH Princess Anne. During the Big Society Awards, faciliatated by the Young Foundation, We Do Ideas' intern Rebecca Birch met David Cameron and We Do Ideas Director Rebecca Coppock and intern Rebecca Birch met with HRH Princess Anne at the NIACE conference on Learning for Citizenship. During this conference, they took part in a round table discussion headed by the princess about the role of learning in supporting environments for active citizenship in the UK and the Princess took a keen interest in the work being carried out by We Do Ideas.
