One of the many great blogs that I regularly read is that of Dana Boyd. She posted at the weekend about the outcomes of the Lori Drew trial in the USA. For those who might not remember, wikipedia explains: Megan Meier was an American teenager… who committed suicide in October 2006. Her suicide was attributed [...]

Some Definitions

It was recently pointed out to me that many people may be confused in the distinction between youth work and youth ministry. On this blog, I tend to categorise my posts and links under these two headings quite often so I thought it would be useful to quickly define what is meant by each term [...]

Obviously I’ve been adding too many links, so I’ve changed the settings to only publish once a week. You should now get a [...]

I posted last week about Barnardo’s Children In Trouble Campaign. I’ve since had various discussions with people who feel that whilst the sentiment of the campaign is great, the shock tactics could perhaps have been better replaced by actually showing young people in a positive light. MAS posted his response here and later updated it [...]

Youthwork The Conference

Just a quick note to say that I’m off to Eastbourne this afternoon with my colleague Pippa for this year’s Youthwork The Conference. We’ve had a great time the last 2 years, so am looking forward to listening, thinking and catching up with fellow bloggers. Anyone else out there going?
