Good morning! Welcome to Youthblog news, putting the fun, variation and quality in inFormal edcUcatioN, Voluntary pARticIpaTION and eQUAL opportunITY ...... as well as mucking around with words, and generally wittering about youth work and ministry.
But first, the news of stuff around the Diocese:

I recently came across this Community Mission web site which I'm flagging up here for myself ..... but you should take a look too!
AND FINALLY ....
I found these Human Hamster Balls that claim to be great for youth groups!
I'd be struggling with the risk assessment on sending a teenager we're responsible for out over a lake in an oxygen-limited rip-able sphere!
(For a bunch of me and my fellow Youth workers however, that's a different story .....
BIG BIG FUN, bring it on!)
