FireWerks
This was the Drop Inn's idea of and alternative Fireworks display. We did the eclipse Firework display last year and wanted to do something completely different. We booked some professional fire performers in to perform a short impact fire show.
They were spinning fire staffs, nun-chucks and breathing fire. It was only a short 10-15 minute show but was really entertaining and something a bit different from the usual fireworks everyone else does. Thanks to Rowland and Gritz! We also had our usual bonfire night BBQ which was very tasty!

Back to The Future Conference
Andrea and Libby got selected from the Drop Inn centre along side Gill Clarke from DIgS to go and do a presentation about the intergenerational work they have been working on. The 'Back to the Future' intergenerational conference was held at the Inmarstat conference centre in London. The three of them presented the 'Role Reversal' project which was the summer project both organisation paired up to create along side with Filmcity. The trailer for the 'Role Reversal' film was screened as part of the presentation. Then in the afternoon there were two workshops delivered to different groups. All followed up with an after-party.
It was a great promotion for the intergenerational work we are doing at the Drop Inn, with people traveling from all corners of Europe to be there.
