Ministry Intelligence Gathering Evening

7:00pm Wednesday May 30th, 2012

Network and hobnob whilst tasting our new deluxe range, Salt made from Tears.

When our volunteer Ministers aren’t devoting their skills to us at 159 Hoxton St, it has come to our attention that many of them live double lives as successful creative professionals. The Chief thought it would be a great idea to get some of our troops in to talk about their current projects so we can all benefit from their intrepid efforts in their various fields. And so, our great Intelligence Gathering Evening was born. It so happens that Igor and the zombies behind Hoxton Street Monster Supplies have just completed a very exclusive limited edition food range, and who better to try it first than the Ministry’s VIPs?

-Listen to our speakers talk about how emotions have helped and hindered them in their work, while savouring the delicious flavour of Tears thanks to Hoxton Street Monster Supplies.

-Brief and Debrief in groups to get contacts, forge networks, and pump our Ministers for information.
