Resource information

Resource ideas, articles, book, CD and DVD information and reviews, conference session audio, downloads and links to other web sites.

I hope to significantly expand this section of the site, particularly giving you information about new resources as they become available. You will see my 'Sue says' comments appear against some of the resources listed. I'd like to encourage you to add your own reviews and recommendations that will help others working in children's and family ministries. Most pages in this section will allow you to add a comment or you can join a forum discussion - you will need to be registered on the siteto contribute as this reduces the chance of random, irrelevant posts on the site.

We haven't generally been able to offer you the best prices for products because we don't have the buying power of larger retailers. Recent changes in the supply chain to UK Christian retailers has also made it difficult to ensure product availability. So in future, where possible, we will provide you with a link to Amazon or an alternative supplier for listed products. We'll continue to offer some downloads and the MiniZone/ KidZone/ Y-Zone materials direct from this site.
