Try A Therapy

Hi Giuseppe, Thank you very much for all hard work that you put to this event. Please pass my regards to everyone involve including your wife and family. I think last night went amazingly well, very good feedback from clients and therapist. I agree that we need to learn from this experience so next timw will be just perfect. Looking forward to meet you all again Kind regards Ariadna

Hello G Thanks for all your efforts and that of all the door helpers, who were great. One of those was my husband Dave, who slept in on Saturday as he was exhausted after Friday's event. He did manage to keep the queue amused and not go home again. I met some great people and they were very interested in what we do, that was our goal and we achieved it. The changes you propose are a very good idea. We learn as we go along. Thanks again. Yvonne Webb

it was really well organised - well done. i enjoyed it and was good to see other therapists too. looking forward to the next one.

I was hoping to come to add my support, but ended up working in Islington until 6:30 that day and logistics just didn't happen. Really glad to hear it was a success and would love to be kept informed of the next event (especially if it is SE London) and to add my congratulations on a great event. Well done and thanks for all your hard work Judith

Dear Members, Thank you for the very kind words. All I am doing is listening to what is needed by the therapists in this area and organise it. Although it does require quite a lot of spare time, it can be done by anybody. As I have said many times, are the members that make the group, I only coordinate. I am very fortunate that many therapists are willing to give their commitment to the success of all concerned. After all, we belong to an Association which gives us the opportunity of working as a group. As such, we can achieve much more and we can do things that would be impossible as individuals. What would the member think of organising another Try a Therapy either for the end of October or the beginning of November? A Friday again or a Thursday would be better? At this event, I would suggest that therapists should have gifts voucher (professionally designed with envelopes) to sell to clients as Christmas presents for their family and friends. I would use the same venue for the North Kent event but, as we will have to hire two rooms, the cost per therapist will go up between £7.00 and £10.00 (depending on number of therapists). The refreshment table will be in the waiting room and will have home made cakes and drinks and there will not be a reception table as clients will be going into the treatment room from the waiting area. This will give more space but, I would like to maintain the number of therapists to no more than 20, if you all agree. I am also enquiring about the cost of hiring some screens. Did any of your clients made any comments about privacy? Many did not seem to care and appeared to be quite happy of getting undressed. Please let me have your name and preferred date as soon as possible. It will be first come first listed and bookings will be confirmed by sending a cheque to me (when I have the costing sorted out). I am also looking for a venue in the Blackheath area to book for the same period. So far, too expensive or not available or both. Looking forward to your ideas. Best regards, Giuseppe Area Coordinator North Kent and South East London

Hi Giuseppe I couldn't attend the previous meetings but I would be inyterested in knowing more when and where is your next meetup? Marco

also meant to say, and i'm sure it's been mentioned. how about having a facebook group and then creating an event, so all those on CTHA members on facebook can invite their friends?

Hi Giuseppe, I also would like to thank you for all the time you spend organising and coordinating our group, you are doing a great job! Also, all the people that worked at the event door, your wife and children... nothing would happen without all of you... many many thanks! The whole night was a success, a friend of mine who arrived at 9 o'clock thought she was in the wrong place, she could not believe how many people turned up and was waiting for a treatment! I had great feedback from all my Facelift Massage clients that night (I treated 6 clients, but I would have treated a few more if they haven't had turned up all at 9 o'clock!) They all also asked when it will be the next event. Yes, you can put my name in the list, I will be pleased to take part in the next event! In my oppinion the beginning of November and a Friday will be great for the next event. As a suggestion for the Blackheath area venue, what about the St Margaret's Church Hall at Belmont Hill. I go to Weight Watchers meetings down stairs and the place is large enough and has plenty of parking space around. I am looking forward to see you in the Welling meeting. Dirlene Mason

Dear Members, Please note that we will discuss the next Try A Therapy event at our area meeting. Please look at the forum entry for details of venue. Best regards Giuseppe
