Last week we had the enjoyable company of Warwickshire Association of Youth Clubs staying with an international group of young people from; Russia, Estonia, Denmark, Belarus, Norway, Turkey and Greece. The purpose of the week was in part to see how we use outdoor activities for personal and social development and use youth work techniques as part of our programmes when working with young people. The week was a success and ended with a pleasant social evening before everyone departed home.
We again have a full weekend ahead of us with a visit from Westminster Police and all our lodges are occupied as well. We do however still have some free lodges for Christmas if anyone out there who wanted to arrange a families and friends get together over the Christmas Period, the large lodges are great for this. For more information on Avon Tyrrell and what great facilities we offer please view our website http://www.avontyrrell.org.uk/ or for more information email your questions to info@ukyouth.org or call us on 01425 672347.

Last week some of the staff attended a one day internal first aid course run by our very own Mike, and everyone enjoyed the course.

We have again moved the Straw Bale Classroom build on with the completion of one external end being bordered and today the outside lime rendering begins. We should complete the boarding of the other end panel this week as well. Then it is the final push to get the outside balcony built. Also we have started work on improving the interior of our Chalet to make it more comfortable for our groups and at £25 to £30 a day, use of this building is cheap….
