 Our Becky has gone on her three-legged walk to the MKM Stadium for BBC Children in need with Carla Greene this morning! We're so grateful for the support they provide our project, when we were offered the opportunity to take part in we couldn't say no! After spotting Becky's face paint last week in the session, the girls were all after their own matching face paint.

         The young people had fun during Halloween Week in their parties with DJ Methodz, decorating biccys and marshmallows, having treasure hunts, making spooky crafts and getting ready for their own trick or treating on Friday!
Our very own Rachael has passed her Level 2 Youth Work course with flying colours - now on to Level 3! We know she'll smash it. 
We've spent the week going over coping mechanisms, the supportive people in our lives, the positive impact of sports, the importance of talking through & sharing problems, and having a safe space at Network. #WorldMentalHealthDay After getting some detailed feedback from our young people we were able to plan their week-long party with their ideas and have had a blast celebrating our NYA achievement. They asked for team games, modeling & painting clay, designing costumes with Hull Truck Theatre (thanks for coming Charlotte), and, of course, extra grub haha!
The community were super excited to organise and put together their own VJ Day celebration at Network; making the decorations, the food, coming up with the crafts, and making sure to invite everyone in their community to celebrate the day. It was great to let them lead on their own project, supporting them when necessary and listening to their ideas and needs throughout the process.    What a day! Thank you to everyone that dropped in, we had an amazing time celebrating our achievement of the National Youth Agency Quality Mark at the Outstanding Level with our young people, service users and other organisations Young people's voices are at the heart of our project so we're grateful to be acknowledged for the work we do but also to be able to continue it and we couldn't do it without our fantastic volunteers We had possibly our favourite week so far celebrating Jamaican culture with the group! The food was delicious, the music was blasting, the games had everyone up and moving, everyone was having a fab time together, and the decorations they'd been making the weeks before looked great. We're so excited to keep this project going; it's going to be difficult to top this one! |
