Couldn’t resist posing for an official selfie at #TEDSummit - flying the flag for TEDxSherborne and learning so much from other TEDsters

Here’s a view of the main stage at #TEDSummit - v simple but effective set. Mix of layered panels and neon strips.

This year, TEDx celebrates its 10th Anniversary. It’s had quite astonishing impact since 2009...50,000 TEDx volunteers putting on 3,700 events every year in 116 languages

The numbers on TED in 24hrs are pretty staggering. Every day, over 1.5m podcast downloads, 2m learners, 28,000 hrs of TED talks watched...and more...

The humble pencil says something at #TEDSummit

...and the hunt for speakers for TEDxSherborne 2020 will begin soon. Last year, we had 8 applicants for every speaker slot, so you need to prepare early if it’s something you’d like to do...reading this piece would be a good start inc.com/jessica-stillm…

With great regret we are cancelling TEDxSherborne 2020 due to one of our core team suffering a tragic bereavement in their immediate family. We will return in 2021.

Nice one The Gryphon School hopefully you’ll see how easy it is to ditch plastic and carry on...

Thank you MatraversMusic Mark Coles BBC Sounds for helping us to discover Hania Rani

Bloody good for you The Grange at Oborne - this is a fantastic example of pulling together for the #nhs - how businesses respond to this crisis will be remembered

Hard to believe that it’s a year ago today that we staged our first TEDx in Sherborne. It was an amazing community effort and, of course, you and our other speakers were just brilliant. It’s such a shame about this year, but we hope to return in 2021.

Really hard to believe isn’t it? We’re still feeling the glow from it. It was one of the most uplifting things we’ve ever done

A year ago today we staged the first TEDx in Sherborne. Thank you to everyone who gave their time and talents to make it such a success. We hope to return in 2021 to give Sherborne another ‘defibrillator shock’!

Very proud that pressure from the TEDx community has resulted in this website is bad convening a #tedcountdown summit to address climate change...

My name is Greta Thunberg and I am inviting you to be a part of the solution. As #ParisAgreement turns 5, our leaders present their 'hopeful' distant hypothetical targets, 'net zero' loopholes and empty promises. But the real hope comes from the people. #FightFor1Point5
