Library away day

Today, I went to Pathway to Success. This is a library away day for staff, in the lovely grounds of Fulborn, just outside Cambridge.

Fulborn used to be a mental hospital and it must've had a very different atmosphere, in those far off Victorian days, compared to it's present role as one of the homes for Anglia Ruskin University's Faculty of Health.

AwayDays have an energy all of their own. They are very empowering for the university's staff. It's always good to be asked how best to ensure that the delivery of our services is accessible and is helpful to our students in their quest for their degree.

We all enjoyed mooching around the huge verdant estate of Fulbourn. This away day is currently a one-off, but I am convinced that we should have this regularly. The cream cakes didn't influence my decision one bit. Well..... not that much, well, I say not much ... well.. quite a bit, really... yeah...
