This area has been set up to Share information, ideas and thoughts - to complement the more practical, 'learning by doing' stories in our Inspire area. Here we will be publishing reports, articles and research material under various headings - see list on the left - send in anything you would like to share. The new Volunteer section reports personal experineces of volunteers, advertises volunteering programmes and helps potential volunteers find volunteering opportunities. In our 'How we do it Guides', the emphasis is on publishing practical step by step guides so that projects can learn from each other not just about what works but from detailed descriptions about what actions are taken, how programmes are implemented, when and where things are done and who is involved. In Food for Thought we are publishing articles about ideas or concepts - such as Belief, Affirmation, Admiration as well as poems or anecdotes. The Links section is a compliation of useful or interesting websites by country and broad topic. Here we also have Newsletter Links - do you have a newsletter you would like to share? - just email details to Paul Bishop The Library section is where we will put any long papers or reports - such as addtional or background material for the Inspire stories. This is also where you can find our What's New Lisiting - a quick way to catch up on what has been added to the website since your last visit. This is also the area where we thought we would Share some Fun as we all need something to make us smile every now and then. In Just for Fun we will publish things that amuse, entertain and divert. |
