ABSTRACT
Something to come to: make sure people know where your group is and what it’s about. Posters, Facebook, word of mouth, and leaflet it so that your target group
know when and where and what. Blobs can be used in the ad…visuals make
people think
Somewhere to sit: for some groups it will be on soft cushions, for others it will be on chairs behind desks. Think about the arrangement of the room so that everyone
will be able to see the Blobs, and can contribute to the discussions with a partner/
whole group. Sometimes a cosy collapse into sofas can have the opposite effect to
the one you want. It may be that a circle of hard chairs with a low level candle-lit
table will create a more reflective atmosphere for your group. Age will be a key
factor here. A mixed age group may require a range of seats! Arrange the room so
that everyone can see everyone else, and so that everyone feels valued and
included.
