Having consulted with a wide of range of people on the best name for the Slivers of Time service in Bristol, including those who attended the Slivers of Time launch, involved in its implementation, who work in regeneration and via a blog on the Connecting Bristol website – the winner is:

work2suitU

This was overwhelmingly the favoured option. There was virtually no support to stay with Slivers of Time. Therefore that will be the name we will be going with and using in the future.

We were intending to keep Slivers of Time as a tag line and reference to the national initiative.

However SoT is alerady operating under differnt names elsewhere – eg Leeds Flexible Working, Work Link (Kirklees), U&Me (Liverpool) and Right 4 Staff (Sheffield) – so there is not a consistent national branding, rather local solutions reflecting locla situations.

That's a shame about the lack of national cohesion. It could have made all your lives that little bit easier. BTW of the ones you mention Bristol Flexible Working seems to sum it up nicely. The others aren't exactly "Does what it says on the tin". Stephen, Thanks for the feedback. That’s a shame about the lack of national cohesion.

However I'd be wary about changing the name because you won't benefit from national coverage of what is a good innovative initiative. There is more chance of consistent branding for all SoT initiatives being recognised than if they all develop there own branding. Why not keep SliversofTime and use a tag line to explain: Short Term Work for Time Short People (c)2007 ;-) It’s a shame the initiative is called Slivers because I keep talking about snakes slithering.
