Channel: TEDx Talks · 2017 · Nonprofits & Activism
Local legend Robin has brought people together through the use of myths, legends and nonsense such as the King’s Soup, Surbiton Ski Sunday and the legend of the little goat boy Lefi Ganderson. His funny, moving talk demonstrates how the strangest things can build community and change the perception of a local area. Surbiton will never be the same again. Over the last six years Robin Hutchinson has been organising events and happenings in Surbiton and Kingston to help unleash the ambitions and energy of the community. This has recently seen the opening of the Museum of Futures and The Community Kitchen. Robin was awarded an MBE for his work in the arts and the community. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
