With the Last Word column I have a bit more freedom regarding the topics I cover, but have the brief to be slightly more provocative! I might start airing some opinions soon…

Regarding promoting activities, I think most of us have a loooong way to go! I love the plings stuff, but most local authority websites for young people are simply embarrassing and don't have relevant information available! We need to find ways to put the info directly where young people need it.

Keep up the good work.

Hey Jon

Great to see you getting continued good content into Youth Work Now – an congratulations on getting the last word gig.

Earlier this year I tried to imagine twenty different creative ways of promoting positive activities – all available on the Plings blog here: http://blogs.plings.net/?s=%22five+ways+to%22&s...

I'll have to go back through that list soon and see if I can work out how many are already built or easy to implement already…
