Ello all,

As per usual, i haven't posted much on here recently. So what have i been up to? Went to the Solidarity Day event last week and have been in various meetings this week - youth participation, 'working with children and young people policy' group etc. I'm off to a charity communicators networking and seminar event this afternoon and am in the office on Thurs and Fri. Next week, i've got a training day on social media at the Media Trust and the meeting on Sustainability of the YWN.

Other things on at the moment are that i'm recruiting a new Comms Volunteer, working on the designs for the Life Skills pack and aiming to get the International Partners Extranet launched by the end of this week which is not before time! I'm also planning for a project visit to East Jerusalem YMCA in mid-June where i'll be accompanying Sara for some of the time.

I'm also doing various website updates, including drafting copy on the latest DM appeal which will be hitting people's doormats this week and is on Madurai. Also, take a look at the homepage for the latest info on how we've been supporting Sri Lanka YMCA over the past few weeks.

Have a good week peeps!
Gemma
