From: Alastair Graham Bryce [mailto:algebry@talktalknet] Sent: 17 May 2010 11:15 To: Crome, Andrew Subject: Re: Imagineering Web Site Fair Query Andrew Imagineering Introductiondoc Thanks for getting back in touch Attached is the Introduction which describes how Imagineering Clubs work and also a tutor application form Although there are a few teacher led Clubs generally they depend on volunteers coming in to run the sessions While most of the time one tutor and teacher (there always has to be a teacher present) are sufficient to cover the 12 children, we recommend at least a partnership of two to share the tutor role, and there are quite a few examples of consortia of busy working people The Black Country should be a prime area for interest but I think lack of local focus means Imagineering has so far been rather small scale There are currently Clubs running at Bluecoats Junior School in Walsall and Manor Way Primary in Halesowen, and at Wednesfield High School We have also had an initial expresson of interest from South Wolverhampton & Bilston Academy I did have a conversation with the Black Country STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths) Point about Imagineering but heard nothing since although Imagineering is in their STEM directory With your group's interest I would go back to them and suggest a local campaign Our normal way of getting CRB checks done (free) is to sign on with them as STEM Ambassadors If you do have a reasonable number of people interested I could come over and do an Induction session (about 1½ hours) Best regards Alastair Graham Bryce tel/fax 01926 427201 Imagineering Foundation registered charity 1087783 Please reply to algebra@imagineeringwebcouk ----- Original Message ----- From: Crome, Andrew To: algebra@imagineeringwebcouk Sent: Wednesday, May 05, 2010 7:35 AM Subject: Imagineering Web Site Fair Query Alastair, I'm the Chair of the Wolverhampton Young Members Panel I think we met recently during lunch with the President I was hoping you might be able to send me some information regarding Imagineering in and around Wolverhampton I aim to get some information together so that I can present to the Panel at our next meeting, and highlight any local opportunities that we might be able to get involved in Regards Andrew Crome, Chairman, Wolverhampton IMechE YM Panel Graduate Design Engineer, Goodrich Actuation Systems Limited Tel +44 (0) 1902 624998; Fax +44 (0) 1902 652 676; andrewcrome@goodrichcom / WolvsYMChair@imechenetworkorg Save a tree please don't print this email unless you really need to

It is not quite complete for our region, but I have found out the others by going on the Parliament website I will send photo(s) of the newspaper for you to get most of the names, and the others can be found at http://wwwparliamentuk/mps-lords-and-offices/mps/ if you use the drop-down box to sort the list of MPs by constituency Their address is 'House of Commons, London, SW1A 0AA' I would like to suggest that you send them a letter of introduction, and I have attached a sample of one which you can use if you think is suitable This would contribute to our aim of raising awareness and our profile Kind regards, Rod List of MPs versus Areas: Birmingham: Coventry NE, NW and South, 'Kenilworth & Southam', Meriden, Bosworth, Dudley N and S, Stourbridge, Wolverhampton NE, SE and SW, West Brom N, S E and W, Warley, Walsall N and S, 'Aldridge & Brownhills', Sandwell, 'Halesowen & Rowley Regis', Edgbaston, Erdington, Hall Green, Hodge Hill, Ladywood, Northfield, Selly Oak, Perry Barr, Sutton Coldfield, Yardley Rugby: N Warwickshire, Nuneaton, Rugby, 'Rugby & Kenilworth', Stratford-on-Avon, 'Warwick & Leamington', Northampton N and S, Wellingborough, Daventry, South Northamptonshire, Corby, Kettering, Harborough Shropshire: Shrewsbury & Atcham, North Shropshire, The Wrekin, Ludlow, Telford Staffordshire: Stafford, Cannock Chase, Staffordshire South, Stoke-on-Trent N, S and Central, Stone, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Lichfield, Tamworth, Staffordshire Moorlands Worcestershire: Worcester, Bromsgrove, Redditch, Wyre Forest, Worcestershire Mid and West
