The
best and worst 10:10 moments

Team 10:10 recount their favourite memories, and the ones they'd rather forget!


Series: six months in


The thing that makes 10:10 such a great place to be every day is the people. The campaign has attracted a cracking team from all walks of life. The past six months have seen many highs and a few lows.

My personal favourite 10:10 moment so far has to be sharing my first skipping experience with a beautiful 3 year old salvaging wood for our office co build. We've pulled together some of the teams best and worst moments.

 

Annabel Dickson
10:10's fantastic fundraiser.
"Worst was having an entertaining dream about a 10:10 database....very worrying....."

 

 

 

 

 

Ayesha Garrett
Our amazing designer.
"Getting this job and chance to work with such an awesomely designed brand"

 

 

 

 

 

Cian O'Donovan
Looks after our sports sign ups and social media.
"Every Friday 6pm knowing the job wasn't quite done this week, but that only means we get to do it even better next week." 

 

 

 

Daniel Vockins
His title's Campaign Manager, but that doesn't even scratch the surface.
"Standing in the turbine hall at Tate Modern, with 5 minutes to go before our public launch, wondering if anyone was going to show-up! Thankfully they did and we signed-up 10k people on the first day but I can tell you that waiting in an empty power station with a copy of our very own front-page Guardian story is horrifically scary - a bit like holding the biggest party ever and waiting to see if your friends are actually going to turn-up"

 

 

Duncan Clark
10:10 Strategy Director, also known in the office as the Font of all Knowledge.
"Looking on in amazement as 10:10 was debated in Parliament only weeks after launch"

 

 

 

 

Eugenie Harvey
10:10 Director who always manages to keep smiling!"Best 10:10 moment was looking round at last year's team Christmas party and realising what an amazing group of people I work with. Cheesy but true".

 

 

 

Franny Armstrong
Founder and the inspiration behind it all.
"Saying "Labour's definitely getting kicked out at the next election" to the EDF (big energy company) dude I was discussing 10:10 with, not realising he was Gordon Brown's brother"

 

 

 

Jonathan Bown
Press Manager and the brain behind the best puns you'll ever hear.
"No worst moments so far! Best moment was probably my first day, seeing how enthusiastic and charged up everyone was about the campaign."

 

 

 

 

Malachi Chadwick
Content manager and all round 'bosh' king.
"Forgetting how to operate a door handle on the way out of a meeting with Boris Johnson's aides."

 

 

 

 

 

Richard Metson
One of our fantastic interns, he left ... then came back!
"Leaving it 6 months to come back and get involved again!" 

 

 

 

 

 

Ross Muir
Art Director and the source of many a laugh in the office.
"The discovery of Marks & Spencer's Reversy Percy sweets"
