Dear Friends of the Misfits, 

Happy Easter to you all! 

A little while ago we told you about our exciting Train the Trainers course called 'The Unmissable Trainer', where people with learning difficulties can learn about training and practice training in a safe and supportive way. We have a few places left for anyone that is interested to take part and we're really keen to hear from anyone who is interested in exploring the idea of being a trainer. 

A little bit about the Unmissable Trainer:

Hello everybody, 

We hope you are all enjoying the spring like weather we're currently having in Bristol!

Dear Friends of the Misfits,

Before Christmas I sent out some information about our upcoming Train the Trainers course. 
We are now looking for participants for the course and we're are keen to meet with and talk to as many interested people as possible. We will be having an open morning, hopefully in February where anyone who is interested can come and find out more, ask questions and apply for a place on the course.

Dear Friends of the Misfits,

Next Wednesday, the 5th December, we are having our Annual General Meeting. It is at Hamilton House. It starts at 12:00.

We have lots of exciting things planned so we hope you can make it.

For 12 lucky people the meeting will start with the chance to see what The Misfits Academy have been working on. This is what they want to say about their performance 'The Challenge'...

"Are you ready for the challenge?

You will need to use all your senses, trust us we will support you on this challenge.

Dear Friends of the Misfits,

We have four events coming up between now and Christmas. 

1. Tuesday 20th November, 10:00-12:00, Hamilton House, Stokes Croft, BS1 3QY. 

"How to... work with other arts organisations".

Dear Friends,

It's time for another Rhythm of the Night! 

We're looking forward to seeing you all again at The Trinity Centre on Thursday 30th August.

Get your dancing shoes on!

Dear Friends of the Misfits,

We wanted to let you know that unfortunately, we have had to cancel the Tea Dance we had planned for Friday 22nd June.

We're sorry to disappoint you this time but hope to see you on Friday 20th July from 2-4pm ready to dance the afternoon away!

Dear Friends of the Misfits,

Today is the last day of our Big Fun £5000 Fundraising Challenge!

It has definitely been big, and a lot of fun.

With your help and support (and donations!), we've raised £1782!

While we didn't quite make our £5000 target, we're very pleased with what we've achieved and will be able to use that money to provide more creative activites for people with learning difficulties.

And the money isn't everything...

Misfits Big Fun £5000 Fundraising Challenge Reaches Halfway Mark!

The big news this week is that it is now Week 5 of our Fundraising Challenge.

Dear Friends,

You can now follow us on Facebook and Twitter, share stories with your friends or even invite them to join the Friends of the Misfits themselves using our new online form.
