Opportunities
for young writers
Editors of a new website for 10 13 year olds are recruiting
young writers.
www.yfaith.co.uk will
be designed to enable young people to engage with, and explore
their faith, to discover that they're part of a vast community
and that they have a contribution to make to the world as Catholics.
The site will feature sections about God, discipleship, and the
Bible; it offers a space to pray, and to explore how faith relates
to life today.
This resource will be launched in July and the creators are currently
recruiting budding young writers to contribute to the site, either
once only or regularly. Emily Davis is the Project Coordinator
and said: "We're looking for creative young people who have
questions to ask but who are willing to learn, and have a sense
of fun. We need film reviewers, reporters, blog contributors
and young people who have stories to share about their faith.
Everyone within the age bracket is welcome to apply. We'd
also welcome applications from those up to the age of 15 who could
write for a younger audience."
All those who submit a piece of work will receive a Yfaith pen
and t-shirt and some may be invited to the launch event in July
to meet the Yfaith team. If you know someone who would like to
apply please download an application form from: www.caseresources.org.uk
or call 020 8458 3316.
