GUEST BLOG: We're not in Kansas anymore

I hope you read all this text but, if you simply can't be bothered, I won't be offended but do skip straight to the following link: http://annagillespie.blogspot.co.uk/p/we-are-not-in-kansas-anymore.html
- As long as you have a pulse you won't regret it.

Still here? Ok I'll go on before you get to read the guest blog. I was planning on writing a blog today but that changed after I read a blog by someone I knew.

Anyone that knows me, and most of you reading this don't alas, knows that I've not had the easiest of times over the last 9 months or so. However, having read the latest blog by Anna Gillespie the Director of Business Development at the amazing charity Mayday Trust I realised how lucky I am. 

I've worked with Anna with two different organisations but, as much as I always liked and respected her, I had no idea of how much of a special person she is until recently. She has helped me enormously in my personal and working life. She has an insight that screams 'CEO in waiting' and has supporting people at the forefront of her thinking whilst understanding how to achieve that on a business level. 

I know it's bad but I don't respect the vision of many people. Whether that's because I'm up my own backside or because I'm more like some of the gracious plaudits I've been lucky enough to receive, I'm not sure but I really rate Anna. 

It's because of that that I'm not posting her blog for me here. Instead I'm going to ask you to exercise your finger, click your mouse and go here and read her wonderful, extremely touching and important blog http://annagillespie.blogspot.co.uk/p/we-are-not-in-kansas-anymore.html instead. 

I'm asking you to read Anna's blog for yourself then start following it. You can find her on Twitter @annagillespie74 and her supporting people charity is @MaydayTrust or go to www.facebook.com/MaydayTrustOfficial and like them

Ok then....off you go and see how some people really #MakeADifference and set about #ChangingLives
