Have your say – Give us a quote…

21 02 2007

Drugs, Relationships, Sex, Education, Health, Religion, Work, Money, Benefits, Housing, The Law, Leisure, Travel, The Environment, Politics, and Equal Opportunities.

All things that matter and have a big impact on your life – and things that most people have an opinion on.

Now’s your chance to think about what some of these things mean to you – and have your thoughts used as a quote to introduce the chapters in the What Now? book, CD and Website.  

It’s often said that we live in a sound bite culture – and now we would like to get a real sound bite on the issues that we cover in the What Now? book, CD  and Website– BUT from the people that count – you!

We want to introduce each chapter using a short quote on what that chapter means to you.
The chapters are: Drugs, Relationships, Sex, Education, Health, Religion, Work, Money, Benefits, Housing, The Law, Leisure, Travel, The Environment, Politics, and Equal Opportunities

We are open to anything – well virtually anything – that really sums up what the above subjects means to you for example – “I really got into healthy eating after I got picked for the school football team” – would be a great quote for the health chapter.

Or – “I never thought about religion until my Gran died – then I really wanted there to be something else so that I could have a chance to see her again – somewhere – anywhere” would paint a picture about what religion might mean to some people.

 So – over to you – but there are a few rules:

  • No names –  we don’t want to be able to identify anyone!
  • Nothing racist, prejudiced or offensive.
  • We can’t name you in your quote – but you will know it was you and it will be great to see something you have written in print – in the book, on the CD and on the website.
  • By submitting your quote you are giving us permission to edit and use it in our publications.

 So – get thinking and send us your thoughts!

My education is so important to me, and to my family. When I go to university this September it’ll be a huge step… more of a giant leap, actually!

I think drugs are very dangerous and addictive. I have seen what it has done to my friends, taking them down a wrong path. One of my friends is in pen for robbing to get money for her habit. I feel really sorry for her.

Hi
Just had a look at the new website, its really clear and easy to navigate. It was really helpful to see the range of information available on the site.

I would like to show the site to a small group of young people to get their feedback, please let me know if this is okay.

Thanks.
