Nearly seven years ago, the BBC Blast Tour came to the Wharfside Car Park in Penzance. 

Today's post is a throwback to when I achieved a Work Experience Placement during their BBC Blast Tour. It was a brilliant time, working as a member of the Work Experience Team. Truly a group effort, we were partnered with Event Cornwall, travelling to local schools encouraging Children to sign up for creative workshops. I had a crash course in using brand new computer programmes used to play and manufacture music and then help teach children visiting the mobile van. Other workshops that took place included Dance with the Big Dance Company, whose group Flava reached Britain's Got Talent 2008 semi-finals.

On the last day, we helped to put together an event with entertainment showing just what all the teens attending had achieved. This was my first real experience working as a floor manager- You can check out the final Showcase on the archived website here.
