18th Annual RYDON Conference
25 - 26 June 2007

"Engaging Young People"

 Thanks to everyone who presented and participated.  We had an overwhelming positive response to the conference and look forward to seeing you all next year.

 During the conference each delegate was given a postcard and asked to write a piece of advice they would give to another youth worker about Youth Participation.  They were then asked to write their address on the postcard.  We have compiled some of the advice - you can click on the mailbox below:
