The Website Update

Author: Takura Sibanda

Date: 1st June 2020

“At the beginning of April 2020, I took on the responsibility for leading an overhaul update of the website you are looking at today as a UX Developer/ Iteration Lead.

I formed a web team with the help of the longest serving member of Enactus Teesside John. I recruited key personnel for the big job like Jozeene, Tatenda, Vishak, and Liam. In the initial stages we set out on learning how the website worked and gathered the information and images necessary to for the website update.

Once we learnt what platform we would be using to do the development and had collected all the necessary information we set out a plan to complete changes using a Kanban Board in Trello. We have now designed and published all of the pages.

I wanted to congratulate and  thank the team for all their efforts.  I am proud I have learnt a new skill that I am sure to utilise in future.

The final website was assessed by our debutant QAs Nora and Liam.”

Enactus Regionals 2018

Author: Takura Sibanda

Date: 8th March 2018

On Thursday the 8th of March, the Teesside team made the short trip down to ASDA House in Leeds to compete in the Annual Enactus Regionals competition.

The team presented their current projects Save the Woman, Revamp, and new project Your Fridge. It was an interesting day as Teesside were joined by other Northern and East Central Enactus teams like Northumbria, Hull, York, Sheffield, and many others.

The day overall was very enlightening as the team received valuable feedback on the presentation and annual report. The following week the team were notified that they would be progressing to Nationals as 1 of the 32 competing teams. The team must be commended on delivering an excellent presentation in the absence of their current team leader Anna who was unfortunately unwell.

The team now aims to take this momentum into nationals and hopes to make it through the opening round and beyond.
