This is a once-off time commitment to plan and host a meal. With a team, this would involve a planning session about venue and food logistics, as well as a structure for the conversational focus of the meal. Beyond this, time would be required to prepare the venue and food and host the meal.

  • Plan the Meal with your Team: Collaborate with your team to design the meal. Discuss the menu, the theme of the meal, and the logistics such as the venue and the number of guests.
     
  • Successfully Obtain Funding for the Meal: Apply for and secure funding through ChangeX to cover the costs of the meal. Ensure that all financial requirements and documentation are completed as per the guidelines provided by ChangeX. If funding isn't available from ChangeX at the time of your application, you're welcome to find funding elsewhere and continue!
  • Register on OpenSeat (openseat.co.za) and Fill Out Your Profile: Sign up on the OpenSeat platform and complete your host profile with all necessary details including a profile photo of yourself, and not a logo. We are people centric here at OpenSeat! :) 
     
  • Create a Meal Using the Platform: Use OpenSeat’s platform to set up your meal event. Provide details like the date, time, location, and the specific 'Mindful' theme or focus for the meal.
     
  • Associate Your Meal with Mindful Meals Campaign Hub: Link your meal event to the Mindful Meals Campaign Hub during the meal creation process by enabling the "Is this affiliated with a campaign or organisation?" toggle, and selecting Playful Feast in the drop down.
  • Share the URL of Your Meal Invitation Page Within Your Social Network: Distribute the unique URL of your meal invitation page to friends, family, and colleagues to invite them to your event.
     
  • Share on Social Media: Promote your meal event on social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn to reach a wider audience.Ensure you tag @openseatlife on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn in your posts to increase visibility and engagement.
     
  • Follow us on WhatsApp: Our WhatsApp channel is our most active channel regarding new event alerts, product updates, community polling and company news. 
  • Organize a Caterer / Buy and Prepare the Food for the Meal: Decide whether you will hire a caterer or prepare the food yourself. Ensure that the menu is planned and ingredients are sourced in advance.
     
  • Set Up the Venue and Table: Arrange the venue with a long table that can comfortably seat 8-12 guests. Pay attention to the seating arrangement and ambiance to facilitate a cozy and engaging environment.
     
  • Be Prepared For Facilitating Conversation: Develop a plan for how you will introduce the meal and guide the conversation.
     
  • Use the resource document provided by OpenSeat which includes a suggested meal and conversation plan.
  • Welcome Guests: Greet your guests warmly as they arrive.
     
  • Share Food and Drink: Serve the meal and beverages, encouraging guests to enjoy the food and engage with each other.
     
  • Facilitate Conversation: Lead the conversation, making sure everyone has the opportunity to participate. Use the conversation plan to keep discussions meaningful and on-topic.
     
  • Take Photos: Capture moments from the meal with photographs.
     
  • Ask Guests to Write a Reflection and Review of the Meal: Encourage guests to write down their reflections and reviews of the meal experience.
