GDPR compliance

Lots of organisations you may have heard from already, sending you opt in forms, due to new GDPR (stands for General Data Protection Regulation) regulations and guidance on how best to communicate with customers. So I spent yesterday working out what to do, so we can send info to our nearly 2000 strong email database: on the one hand, we have built up this email database over ten years, on the other, we are breaking the law if we do not alert eveyone that they need to 'opt' back in.......

Here is the link to the email I have sent to all our customers. If you have your own database for you own customers, feel free to use some of the text (or google 'GDPR compliance') 

Our website contact email form, our link to go on mailing list, and also our facebook link to go on mailing list, have all been updated with the relevant forms...phew!

If you are not on our customer mailing list (I usually copy and paste your member' email across to keep it up to date) feel free to subscribe through the website click through button, you will see that on every page.

P.o.P!-People of Purpose Space to hire/share in Georgian Village, Wood Street, E17

PLEASE CONTACT THEM DIRECT IF YOU ARE INTERESTED/HIRING THE SPACE:

Popeastlondon@gmail.com

P.o.P!-People of Purpose

P.o.P! was born out of looking for somewhere to be purposeful and to make that space available to others trying out a project .

After looking at the not so affordable/inconvenient studio spaces , we found the Georgian village shops to be available& priced so you could risk trying a project.  Since October it has been running as a shop, selling workshops and making creations. It’s also used as quiet study.

We look to invite: People to sell through here &

 more members, on the lease it is named a shop but we are encouraged that as long as we are seen to be selling and have the doors open Tues-Sat 10-5

Thursday and Friday can stay open til 8pm if you had an after work audience/need to stay late .

So far the model has been split everything (rent/work)and prefer it that way ,a collective mentality. There’s a manager of the buildings but not this shop. We have to meet occasionally, but we have an email group for things like sharing the new toilet code info etc.

We’re looking for day members but it can be split between 2 of you doing half days.

So the costs and benefits:

£75 a month for a day a week

That covers :

day rent , leccy,water ,wifi, toilet cleaned and toilet roll. We got public liability so any workshop participants are legally looked after, you may want to read the small print to see if your activity requires anything further.

You can use this day to charge for your own activities.

What’s in the space to use :

oil heater , window space, hanging space and shelf space, of course we’d all make it fair so that you are represented . How the space develops is a collective experience so suggestions welcome on how we use it.

Bluetooth speaker, Also a kettle some lamps,tea cups and supplies. Bring your own taste in things, it’s meant as a base.

We have 9 chairs. 

·      11 can be seated with a desk space each against the wall. That’s comfortable but with the option to add more in the centre.

·      Fold down all tables to have a full open space.

·      There are 2 desk size tables stored underneath which  make either 2 separate tables or one large table in the centre.

Tables ,when folded down, have been designed to have a lip for tea cups to sit,so if you’re standing you have somewhere to put your drink!

Plenty of plug points.

Floor is made durable and waterproof,ready for action.

Large sink ,cold running water.

Some storage,not huge but x8 separates.

If it is for running groups, advertising and finding your people would be key rather than hoping for a drop in.

Popeastlondon@gmail is the contact and the Instagram&facebook . 

Monday 7th May – The Lloyd Park May Fair:

Yes, I managed at the last minute to get a May booking at the Hub on Orford Road: have managed to partner with the E17 Village Market: we can only fit a few tables indoors, they have street food etc outside and eating tables inside, so not as big as our usual market . Let's do it!

Christmas event on the Town Hall Campus

FROM LBWF: As the pre-launch to Small Business Saturday – the Council will be organising a Christmas event on the Town Hall Campus on Friday 1^stDecember. This special event will be free for residents to attend and will be a celebration of all things festive, including Santa, carol singers, entertainment, food and beverage stalls, a makers and creators Christmas market and tours of the Town Hall.

Ahead of Small Business Saturday 2 Dec, this event also aims to support our local ‘Maker and Creator’ Businesses through providing the opportunity to have a stand in our Christmas Craft market. If you are a small local business in the borough and are creative, crafty, artistic and want to sell your wares at our Christmas fair, get in touch.

The market will be in the Assembly Hall, from 3 – 8pm. Pitches are free.

If you would like to have a pitch and register your interest – please contact Ravinder.Dhanjal@walthamforest.gov.uk or Carly.Davis@walthamforest.gov.uk  who is the event organiser as soon as possible as there are limited places.

Registering your interest is not a guarantee to secure your place as you will need to meet our quality control processes. Whilst the event will be covered by the Council’s public liability insurance, you will need to ensure that you have all other legislative licenses/certificates e.g. food and hygiene  up to date if relevant to your business.

For any queries please email Carly Davis who will be able to assist.

Kind regards

LEYTONSTONE’S CHRISTMAS MARKET TRAIL

¯  This market is supported by the London Borough of Waltham Forest, Stone’s Throw Market, the local business community, Church Lane Market, Leytonstone Designers and the High Road Leytonstone Methodist Church.

¯  It is part of a community strategy to draw people into Leytonstone on the first Saturday of December.

¯  The Christmas Market Trail has a key role in this strategy.  We hope to present a high quality Christmas Market incorporating ‘Stones Throw Market’ located at St John’s and additional stalls at Lister Hall, Leytonstone Methodist Church, Leytonstone Designers in the Leytonstone library, all offering a wide range of Art and Craft Stalls with goods for sale.

¯  All the space at St John’s will be taken up by ‘Stone’s Throw Market’ therefore unless you are already part of that market, you will be applying for one of the Art & Craft stalls available in the Lister Hall of High Road Methodist Church.

¯  The Market will be open to the public from 11am – 4pm and stall holders need to undertake to be there for that period.

¯  The charge for having a stall is £15.00 each, and all of this sum will go towards the rent for use of the halls and should be paid in advance to secure your place.  Cheques for Lister Road should be made to Leytonstone Methodist Church.

¯  Stall holders will be expected to take out their own insurance for this event.

¯  Stalls can be set up from 10:00am on Saturday 2nd December, and must be cleared away by 5pm on Saturday 2nd December.

¯  Applications for an Art & Craft stall at this Christmas Market must be made to the Ms. Avonelle Howe, Leytonstone Methodist Church, Corner of Leytonstone High Rd & Lister Road, Leytonstone E11 3DS, by email or post using the application form on the next page, by 30^th October 2017.

Christmas Markets (December) and the William Morris Gallery markets over subscribed

I have had to make the two Christmas Markets (December) and the William Morris Gallery (Novemeber) full, so if you haven't booked do email so I can create a waiting list. It booked up super quickly, I will do my best to allocate spaces fairly (it's a jigsaw..) early in September.
