Activities That Bring People In Contact

The delination of parking spaces, and the stakeholder negotiation that goes with deciding who gets what - the chalk marks were being applied as we arrived. A simple example of an task that brings people from the local community in contact with one another. I'm reminded of living in an othordox Jewish part of Hackney - there wasn't too much interaction between neighbours until an elderly volvo driving gentleman managed to shunt 3 parked cars - mine included. The things that enduce first contact.
