V Formation

You may have seen a few out-of-offices last week, and that’s because the V Formation flock came together for our annual away stay ✨

Over two days, we got stuck into team workshops, career progression, big conversations about the future of V, and pitched our ideas for how we make V fly. Not forgetting the 'Capture Morley Hayes' challenge and the great spaghetti tower build-off - the less said about some ’towers’ the better 🙈

We also couldn't let the trip go by without celebrating Jocelyn's birthday 🎂

A huge thank you to Morley Hayes for hosting the team, to People and Culture specialist Jane Rawden for leading some incredibly insightful sessions and helping us find our honk, and to our brilliant directors Hilary and Sue for organising yet another cracking away stay.

We've come back energised and with plenty to share. Watch this space 🪿

Fancy joining us for a spot of cake? 🍰

We are hosting a Bake and Brew event to raise money for Maggie's Nottingham, our Charity of the Year. Come and say hello and enjoy delicious baked goods prepared by our team, all while supporting the incredible work that Maggie's does for people living with cancer 🧡

Find us (and the bakes) at: Sheriff House, 64 St James's Street, Nottingham, NG1 6FJ
