End of my 6th week as Stevie Kidd’s Executive Assistant
Well where do I start on how the last 6 weeks have gone? The time has flown by but at the same time I feel like I’ve worked with KDS forever! I have been involved with so many interesting and exciting things, things I never thought I’d do.
Some of the highlights have been:
· Filming the spoof DVD for Stevie’s 40th birthday – this was a great day and absolutely hilarious. Well done Roger for an Oscar winning performance and well done Andrew for the editing and filming. Thankfully Stevie loved it and we all got to keep our jobs after he’d seen it!
· Stevie’s Party – it was a fabulous night from start to finish. The venue was amazing and the company was even better, I think it said a lot about the type of people that Stevie surrounds himself with. From a personal point of view, organising the party was my first task from a planning point of view so I was delighted that everything ran seamlessly on the night – phew!!
· Filming for the Stevie Kidd People Website – this is something that I never dreamed I would get to do and it was really interesting. We hired a green room, professional filming equipment and a cameraman and sound engineer to film Stevie for his website and visual images for the motivational seminar in September. Stevie, Andrew and I took 3 days out to write the script and go to the filming, it was a draining 3 days but it was really fascinating to learn how it’s all done. Andrew’s editing skills have been called upon again and the footage looks amazing.
· Launch of the new website – It has been such an honour to be involved with this and I can’t wait till launch day.
· Securing DUNCAN BANNATYNE for the motivational event – we held a brainstorming meeting and created a list of potential guest speakers starting with the absolute(probably never going to happen but would be amazing if it did) favourite – Duncan Bannatyne. We done some research, put a proposal together and a few weeks later the proposal was accepted and we secured Duncan as a guest speaker for Stevie’s motivational event – outstanding and super exciting!!!!!
I feel really lucky to be working at KDS, I am learning all of the time and I can’t wait to see what happens next!!

Third week of East Renfrewshire Academy
We are now in our third week of the care academy and the KDS course has brought around so many changes in us! Some of us were at first skeptical but the change has been great. All of us now feel more confident, more motivated and it has been great to see the team becoming closer as the days go forth.
Best bits have been mind over matter and seeing stevie in action! He is inspirational and had us all dancing!! Something some of us thought we'd never do!
We wish good luck to the stirling academy who graduate tomorrow and look forward to the week ahead! Bring it on!!

East Renfrewshire Academy - Day 11
A fabulous day for a fantastic Academy! Food hygiene was on the Agenda for today as well as success symbols and preparations for Buddy Day! This was a great as the candidates soaked it all up and passed the learning check for Food Hygiene – RESULT!
The Academies are about more than compulsory training, however, each key learning prepares individuals for their future employment in Care. The Academy helps to prepare the mind and body through dealing with emotion, challenge, positivty and attitude and today we got to know more about this when discussing our success symbols! Roll on tomorrow for more success symbol stories!
Woohoo! Come on 24!!!!!
