Seekers showed their support for small business Saturday by popping along to see our friends at the Hotwalls Studios Christmas Market! We didn’t have time to get round and talk to all the talent. We will be back after Christmas to plan Seekers Trail exhibitions happening in 2021. #SeekYourSpark icanseethesea.com James Mouland Ebru Studio katie_munro_art Mystery Adventure Books #PortsmouthMillenniumTrail #SpiceIslandTrail We've been thinking a lot about sustainability and how we keep going when things get tough. Yesterday morning we popped to Old Portsmouth to workout how to develop our #SpiceIslandTrail following our new self led method. We've been doing some research and have found some great tools to make this happen and we're excited to roll this out! After our trail adventure we caught up with Solent University University of Portsmouth and Hampshire Chamber of Commerce talking about how we guide our teams through change. Next we caught up with the Lloyd's Register Foundation to hear all about the amazing work they do and how they are digitalising their archives for all to enjoy. #SeekYourSpark #Sustainability
