I had some feedback this week from Melbourne100Impact as to why our TBFP did not get thru to the second and subsequent round of the competition. I was told that our idea was deemed to be brilliant (no surprises there) but that it was just ‘too radical’ for the group of donors. I have since discovered that one of the finalists is creating a ‘drop in center’ in a suburb near Lilydale. Although I am sure this will serve people well I cannot help but think that this is a tremendously safe option – NOT one which will really change the world.

I have scored myself a free ticket to the Awards Evening in November and I intend to network my little cotton socks off to find the people who saw the magic within TBFP idea.
