Leighann McConville and Eliz McArdle draw on observational and interview research with 43 youth workers in Northern Ireland during the Covid 19 pandemic. They discuss how the global youth work community stepped up to meet the needs of young people.
'Bring on the Zombie apocalypse – we are ready!' The statement made by a participant taking part in research into the response of youth workers during the Covid-19 global pandemic was said 'half in jest, whole in earnest' and revealed the range of emotions at the initial stages of the pandemic and the public health restrictions imposed by the two Governments in Northern Ireland and Ireland. The phrase captured a sense of shock, strength during a difficult time and preparedness for what comes next.
A consistent message
Breda Friel (2021) outlined how practice is ahead of policy in relation to this pandemic and shared how an acute problem has turned into chronic endurance. So, while much of this article will highlight the formidable work that was carried out by youth workers, their endeavours have not been without a cost to each person across a spectrum of physical, emotional and psychological strains.
This article draws on the insights gained from research 'At the Threshold: youth work in a time of Covid-19' carried out with 43 youth workers in the Peace4Youth[1] programme delivering youth programmes throughout the COVID-19 global pandemic. The research was conducted through observation of staff meetings and semi-structured interviews. It resonates with research and insights shared at several youth work conferences and events in the Spring and Summer 2021 including, What's the Story? NUIM (24th and 25th June 2021) and Ulster University's 'COVID and the aftermath: What did we learn and what must we learn?' (10 June 2021), Youthpact's 'Unfolding Narrative from Covid-19: personal and professional wellness in practice.' (23 March 2021). A consistent message has emerged from these events about the efforts and practice of youth workers during the Covid-19 global pandemic. The core message was abundantly clear: the global youth work community stepped up within hours of 'lockdowns' and the introduction of public health restrictions to meet the needs of young people.
Rooted in ancient wisdom
At the recent online presentation, Susan Morgan (2021) reminded us that youth work as a discipline is in its infancy, which it absolutely is. However, its skills and values are rooted in ancient wisdom and practices. Two words come to mind, firstly, agape; secondly, phronesis. Agape, mostly, but not exclusively used in a religious context is a love of choice, not out of attraction or obligation, agape leads a person to take action for the benefit of the other. Jean Spence (2008) writes of how we don't use the word love any more when we talk about young people in the context of our work and we all understand at a personal and societal level why that is the case – however, is there a better way to describe the actions of the youth workers during the global pandemic?
The other ancient term is phronesis – one of Aristotle's three domains of knowledge, best translated as practical wisdom. Phronesis is a moral and ethical term (Stanton et al, 2018:42) which guides youth workers to 'respond to variable situations in ways that exhibit context-sensitive virtues, such as 'courage, fortitude, endurance, generosity, and humility [and care?]' Bessant (2009: 434)
For all that changed in the practice of youth work during the restrictions brought about by the global pandemic, the core of the work remained the same. The research demonstrated that the values and principles around which youth work takes place are strong enough to withstand significant upheaval and practical changes. One youth worker articulated this succinctly,
'There are certain ways of doing things, but the core element of the programme never changed.'
Values which underpinned the response include a concern for all young people, especially the most vulnerable; young people as partners in the learning process; creating a safe space; starting where young people are at; providing a service to young people; and the primacy of relationship.
Another worker shared how young people recognised the presence of youth workers during the pandemic.
'Young people have seen the value of the work. Through the lockdown we were there for them.'
'We always made a conscious effort to ask "how can we really build a relationship with these young people?" "How can we connect online?"'
In addition to the demonstration of their core values and principles, youth workers maintained the provision of meaningful and purposeful programmes that excited, challenged and met the needs of young people.
'We had a wobble about the programme, but we talked about it, we looked at our programme and we believed that the content was good enough to be adapted to the online space.'
Even with the 'wobbles' amid unprecedented changes to everyday life, workers provided routine, purpose, practical help and support along with a respect for and regard for each young person they were working with. Judgements were made as to when to encourage a young person to get involved and when to hold back and leave the door open for another time. Reflective and reflexive practice was essential for these judgements to be made, workers drew on their own self-awareness and their relationship with co-workers to assess their practice in terms of ethics and effectiveness. The joy of working with young people was a sustaining factor, alongside a sense of making a difference.
'They have a lot of other stuff going on in their lives, but I really felt that the young person would have benefited. But I persisted and offered support…I would never give up if there was somebody not able to take part this time…. I always have them on a waiting list for the next year.'
As the restrictions continued over the weeks and months, relevant and useful programmes continued. Collegiality among youth workers was demonstrated through their willingness to share programme ideas, offer support by listening and empathising with others.
Agility, flexibility and creativity
The agility, flexibility and creativity among workers was evident in the response to the Covid-19 restrictions. Workers displayed the ability and willingness to make the changes required to provide a quality programme for and with young people. Many workers demonstrated how they brought an energy to the task and enjoyed the challenge and stretch in their knowledge and skills.
'I remember me and another co-worker were talking, and it was like we got a different job, like the principles – the voluntary participation of it all, all stayed the same but the admin side of it, the delivery side of it was like a whole new world.'
'Well, [I have] personally a greater confidence in myself in terms of online…'
Flipping the programme to an online world with some face to face interaction in line with public health guidelines was not easy, but people made the effort. Workers exemplified reflective and reflexive practice, that resulted in the continuation of a programme for young people.
'Some staff have struggled with the tech – we have been learning as we have gone along.'
Supportive teamwork was vital for the delivery of the work. Workers were coping with personal and professional challenges that are wide and varied depending on individual circumstances.
'I have mammy guilt – trying to be a teacher and work and finding it all difficult.'
'It is important to take the advice that we give to young people; when your cup is empty, you cannot give. This is about authenticity and self-awareness.'
Rightly there was an acknowledgment of the difficulties of home schooling and childcare that were thrust onto workers but often unspoken was the pressure on practitioners working from their family (parental) home and the challenges they faced regarding space and expectations of family members.
Fellowship, compassion and humour helped sustain working relationships. New ways of using apps such as WhatsApp aided workers communication while they were in groups and throughout the day. Increased staff meetings in the first few months of the restrictions built a sense of common purpose. Workers at times were ambivalent about the meetings as it was extra work in what had become a very time-consuming job, but they enjoyed the time with each other and the support of their organisation. Sharing resources across teams and projects took place in recognition of the need to provide support to young people and workers alike.
Self and organisational care
The importance of self-care and organisational support was stressed in the research; there was an immediate recognition that the only way to maintain personal wellbeing was if there was an element of self-care in the working week. This took a number of forms:
Personal actions
Support from colleagues
Support from the organisation
Where organisations were proactive in stating what they could offer in terms of flexibility this seemed to work well for staff. The team and/or organisational culture needed to reflect the words that were being spoken; in other words, where an offer of flexible working was made then expectations of staff availability needed to change. Reciprocally staff recognised when their organisation was under pressure to achieve targets and wanted to continue to work to meet the project goals. Clear unambiguous communication went a long way to supporting people to stay motivated. Low cost and no cost activities support self-care, including well timed team meeting, daily walks built into work time and flexible working patterns. As the research interviews spanned across 2 months, motivation was ebbing and flowing. It is clear that a one size fits all approach to self-care and staff wellbeing is not sufficient or desirable, therefore managers and organisations need to give consideration to the three areas highlighted above in order to sustain the workforce in the months and perhaps years to come.
The pandemic has created the circumstances where the valuable contribution that youth workers and youth work have as life enhancing and, in some cases, life changing experiences has become more apparent than at any other time. It was evident that youth work has much to contribute in its own right, as well as across the multi-disciplinary spectrum:
'It made me think we are more important than ever in terms of having to respond where other services were skeleton.'
The skills and values demonstrated throughout the pandemic will be crucial in ensuring young people flourish as we move out of the pandemic and the needs of young people, their families and wider society become more apparent. The landscape has deteriorated with the impact of poverty on the life chances and well-being of young people which has been further aggravated during the COVID-19 pandemic (McArdle & McConville, 2021; Rikala, 2020:1025; OECD 2020). Youth work can act as a mitigating factor in tackling poverty and educational disadvantage in bringing unique approaches and skills to multi-disciplinary settings and situations (Hirsch, 2007).
The distinct role of youth workers should be recognised and used as we move to 'build back better'. Starting where young people are at, along with the varied skills, attitudes and values of the 'generalist' youth worker, have acted as a glue for many young people negotiating their way through a global pandemic. Youth workers have been instrumental in helping to maintain connections with family, friends and service providers. Youth work has much to contribute to facilitate bridging and linking capital (Putnam 2000), especially important for young people who experience difficult socio-economic realities. Smyth (2014:8) states,
'Youth workers are normally particularly good at this as we have to mediate on behalf of young people between different worlds…the youth worker can be a trusted individual by a number of groups simultaneously. Whilst the groups might not trust each other…each group trusts the bridge builder.'
In addition to the bridging capital youth workers also build 'linking capital', whereby young people become part of a network of trusting relationship. In this role, workers can create or open a network (or a relationship/connection) to young people that they would not usually have access to.
Youth workers are the trusted 'other' who can move easily between professions and ages and this aptitude for bridging and linking could be utilised as we move through and beyond the impact of the global pandemic.
The continuation of the work was arduous at times. One research participant shared,
'A challenge has been being able to manage the personal turmoil of uncertainty.'
The research demonstrates that youth workers made huge changes to their work and their homelives to continue to provide a meaningful, quality programme for and with young people. This was at a great personal cost to workers in terms of their time, energy, homelife and emotional life. The commitment to young people was a driving force behind the speed and agility of youth workers in responding to the needs of the young people. Youth workers understood tacitly that the primacy of relationship is the necessary and sustaining element for holding connection in the hours and days following the introduction of the public health guidelines. While these changes were taking place, youth workers along with their managers were having conversations and making decisions that adhered to an ethical framework, ensuring integrity, congruence and familiarity for young people in the strangest of circumstances. The standout feature is that their pre-existing values, principles and skills enabled a speedy and authentic response. Youth workers brought the best of themselves and the profession to the Covid-19 response, working with young people to provide help to them and also to support young people to determine their own contribution to wider society. Youth workers along with young people have a valuable contribution to building a fairer and more inclusive society as we move beyond through and beyond Covid-19.

Well hello there beautiful lobster in my kitchen! I can finally show you the new kitchen accessory I've been planning for some time now. I came across this new brand deJouwe a few months ago, when I met them at an event I was attending. They sell all kinds of wall deco but when I saw their lobster design I knew I had to have it. I knew it would be such a perfect perfect match for our kitchen with the brick wall!
This is a wall sticker that is very easy to put on your wall. I love that the shape is asymmetrical and you can use any design, shape or size you prefer. This way I could make it big enough to fit this wall, as I like big statements. I am so happy with it!
Our kitchen just feels so put together right now, with the whites, the brick wall and some black accents. Do you think we should get a name for our new house pet? I was thinking about John, John the Lobster. Either way, I am in love with it! What do you think?
PS. This wall sticker has been gifted to me by deJouwe. I only work with brands I love.

The Scottish Government has been urged to lower the speed limit in residential areas to 20mph to save lives.
A total of 25 organisations from the fields of active travel, health, child advocacy, poverty and environmental interests have written to First Minister Nicola Sturgeon.
They have called on her administration to "seize the opportunity" to support the Safer Streets Bill, which is currently being scrutinised in the Scottish Parliament.
Lower speed limits, particularly 20mph in urban areas, save lives and are proven to reduce the number and severity of injuries on the road, they said.
The groups added Scotland needs to lead, as it did in banning smoking in public places and reducing the alcohol limit for drinking and driving, and the Bill offers "the best chance of safer, fairer roads".
Adrian Davis, Professor of Transport and Health at Edinburgh Napier University, said: "There is strong evidence that 20mph limits have had a positive impact on public health where they have been introduced.
Signatories to the letter include Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland, Cycling Scotland, Friends of the Earth Scotland, Living Streets Scotland, Poverty Alliance, the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, Transform Scotland and Edinburgh Napier University Transport Research Institute.
Professor Steve Turner, officer for Scotland at the Royal College for Paediatrics and Child Health, has previously outlined the organisation's support for 20mph limits.
The Bill was introduced by Scottish Green MSP Mark Ruskell last year.
Transport Scotland said local authorities in Scotland can and do implement 20mph limits where the situation calls for them, such as around schools or in areas used by high numbers of pedestrians.
In their letter, the 25 organisations say a national approach offers benefits such as being more cost-effective and more equitable.
A Transport Scotland spokesman said: "We share the view that 20mph speed limits are a good idea when implemented in the right environment.
"However, we believe, and it is shared with many local authorities, that more evidence and further consideration needs to be given to the impact and consequences of a nationwide default 20mph limit, including an assessment of Scotland's road network before the measure proposed in the Bill can be fully supported.

So, this past weekend my husband Zane and I got to spend some time back in his hometown of Odessa, Texas. Zane's grandparents, whom we affectionately call Mimi and Pa, were celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. Zane's Aunt Diana had the celebration at her house a few miles away in Midland, Texas. It was so sweet to be a part of their celebration, and to get to see most of Zane's family members all in one sitting. Zane's mom and aunts (among others, of course!) worked so hard at creating a perfect event that Mimi and Pa would enjoy… small and simple, yet filled with family and love. Pa had not ever gotten Mimi an engagement ring all of those years ago, so after a bit of encouragement, decided that a 60th anniversary was a great time to present his bride with a gorgeous solitaire engagement ring from Occasions in Midland. While Mimi has a wedding band, she has worn her mother's engagement ring for the past several years. It was beautiful, and Pa even had a lovely speech to accompany the lovely ring. Watch the slideshow below, and scroll down to see more individual photos. The song accompanied is about a 50th anniversary, but it was so fitting, I decided it was fine for a 60th celebration. 🙂 Shanks, Tates, Nielands, and more, I hope you love the slideshow and photos!

Happy Birthday Bob Marley, Born 6 February 1945
10 Powerful Bob Marley Songs of Protest and Revolution That Are Still Relevant Today
February 6, 2019 marks what would been the 74th birthday of Bob Marley. Nearly 38 years after his cancer-related death in 1981, the reggae pioneer's songs of love, dissatisfaction, peace, and protest are still as powerful and timely as they were in his heyday.
With the countless uprisings, confrontations, and soul revolutions in the decades since his passing, it's incredible how many of his politically charged tracks continue to be relevant. Here are his 10 greatest songs of protest, social justice, and fighting the power.
Simmer Down (1962)
Marley's first hit came as part of the ska vocal group the Wailers, alongside Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh. The band took aim at the rude boys of Kingston, telling them to cut the crap when it came to prevalent violent crime in the Jamaican capital.
Concrete Jungle (1973)
Long before Alicia Keys used the term to describe New York, it was the title of Marley's song about life in a Jamaican ghetto with little to no hope for escape, "No chains around my feet/But I'm not free/I know I am bounded in captivity."
Get Up, Stand Up (1973)
Marley criticised the passivity in religious circles in which he felt too many Jamaicans (and others of African descent) were simply content with being mistreated and abused on Earth, because they believed they would inherit a beautiful life after death.
I Shot the Sheriff (1973)
After witnessing police oppression in Jamaica, Marley fantasized about the justifiable killing of a corrupt cop on this single. People still identify with the sentiment, especially in the context of the #BlackLivesMatter movement.
Burnin' and Lootin (1973)
This song reflected the frustration and anger of the people who felt suffocated by the curfews and corrupt police force in Kingston. Marley looks at the different angles of a citizen uprising, simultaneously reveling in the destruction, understanding the motivations and expressing disgust at the violence.
Them Belly Full (But We Hungry) (1974)
Them Belly Full (But We Hungry) is a warning against allowing a nation's poor to go hungry, with the prophetic warning "a hungry mob is an angry mob".
No Woman, No Cry (1974)
One of the best known songs of Marley, No Woman, No Cry is a nostalgic remembrance of growing up in the impoverished streets of Trenchtown, the ghetto of Kingston, and the happiness brought by the company of friends.
Revolution (1974)
This song is a call from Marley to the people to tell them to be aware of politicians bearing false gifts. He knows how the system will "grant" favours to the most vulnerable in an attempt to gain their support, and will then turn and use their dominant position to unscrupulously control and exploit them.
This song takes its lyrics from a speech Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie gave before the United Nations. While Selassie's words and Marley's interpretation are focused on Africans, the message is applicable to any oppressed country, race, ethnicity, sexuality, etc.
Redemption Song (1980)
Written after his cancer diagnosis, Marley reflects upon his impending death, spirituality, and slavery, putting his legacy as an artist and message as an activist into just 108 words, telling all the believers to learn from their pasts, know their presents, and fight for their futures.

IFTA Awards Focus: Best Supporting Actor Film
19 May 2015 : Seán Brosnan
Domhnall Gleeson is nominated alongside Allen Leech, James Nesbitt and Andrew Scott
The IFTA Awards are only five days away (Sunday May 24) and we continue our coverage of the ceremony with a look at the very talented Best Supporting Actor Film category.
The nominees this year are Domhnall Gleeson for musical dramedy 'Frank', Allen Leech for the Oscar-nominated Alan Turing biopic 'The Imitation Game', James Nesbitt for Irish comedy-drama 'Gold' and Andrew Scott for LGBT rights drama 'Pride'.
Celebrating his fifth IFTA nomination this year is Domhnall Gleeson.
In Lenny Abrahamson's acclaimed film 'Frank' – Gleeson plays a wannabe musician who fortuitously gets invited to join a band led by the enigmatic Frank.
The film and Gleeson's performance has received acclaim with Variety saying: "in Gleeson's gifted comedic hands, Jon embodies a shy, self-effacing British stereotype altogether unsuited for rock-star status," and The Irish Times praising Gleeson's chemistry with co-star Michael Fassbender (who is nominated in the Best Actor category for his role in the film).
Gleeson was nominated last year also for 'About Time' and has won two IFTA Awards in the past – for 'Anna Karenina' and 'When Harvey Met Bob'. He has also been receiving acclaim as of late for his role in Alex Garland's sci-fi film 'Ex Machina' and upcoming films include John Crowley's 'Brooklyn', Alejandro González Iñárritu's 'The Revenant' and 'Star Wars 7: The Force Awakens.
Also celebrating his fifth nomination this year is Allen Leech.
Nominated for his role in the widely praised Oscar-nominated film 'The Imitation Game', Leech has previously been nominated for projects such as 'Cowboys & Angels', 'Love is the Drug', 'Legend' and 'Downton Abbey'.
'The Imitation Game' tells the story of cryptanalyst Alan Turing and the challenges he faced for his innovative methods during World War 2, as well as his more personal struggle to hide his homosexuality. The performance of the cast has received acclaim and have so far received nominations from the San Diego Film Critics Society Awards, the Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards and the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Leech can next be seen in the thriller film 'Hunter's Prayer' opposite Sam Worthington and directed by Jonathan Mostow.
Also nominated this year is Northern Irish actor James Nesbitt.
Nominated for his comedic performance as PE teacher Frank in Niall Heery's 'Gold', the Irish Times said of his performance; "it's a delight to see him play somebody more hard-edged and less liberal with the glad hand" and Film Ireland saying "Nesbitt's performance here is real quality."
Nesbitt has previously been IFTA-nominated for 'Bloody Sunday' and 'Wall of Silence'. He has also received three IFTA nominations for British crime-procedural series 'Murphy's Law', winning the award in 2003.
Nesbitt has also been praised as of late for his performance in the British mystery drama series 'The Missing', which secured him a BAFTA Award nomination earlier this year. He has has recently been seen in the Hobbit Trilogy.
Rounding out the list is Andrew Scott (who is also nominated in Best Supporting Actor Drama category for his role in 'Sherlock').
Scott has already won a British Independent Film Award (BIFA) for his performance as Gethin in British LGBT rights drama 'Pride', getting honoured ahead of an acclaimed cast which included Bill Nighy and Paddy Considine.
Scott has previously won two IFTA Awards – for British television series 'Sherlock' in 2013 and Irish film 'Dead Bodies' in 2004. He also garnered a nomination last year for his lead role in John Butler's comedy 'The Stag'.
Scott has been a busy man as of late, getting cast in the new James Bond film 'Spectre' - which will be released later this year – as well as nabbing a role in 'Victor Frankenstein' opposite James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe. He will also be seen next year in 'Alice Through The Looking Glass' alongside Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter.
The IFTA Film & Drama Awards takes place on Sunday, May 24 with TV3 airing a one hour special on the ceremony on Monday, June 1st.

Platinum K9 first of all I want to thank you for the unbelievable work you have done with our dogs, for those of you that don't know we have peanut (stubborn little Cow reactive /mum) cookie (nervous reactive to other dogs/dad) pig (nervous reactive/son) just a month ago this walk could have never happened due to cookie and pig not able to be in sight of each other without wanting to take chunks out of each other and peanut just doing as she pleased.
After 4 week residential training with Jon and his team not only could we take them all out together but enjoy it as well!! Over 16 month ago it came to the point where pig and cookie could not be in the same room as each other so fortunately my mum Anne Greenwood thankfully took pig in to live with his brother koda where with a lot of hard work from my mum pig came a long way until he started again with his brother koda, after 12 month jealousy over affection caused the 2 brothers to react the same leaving us at a last resort situation and luckily platinum k9 was the perfect decision.
After a multitude of phone calls to dog trainers for the best part of a day Jon stood out by a mile with his calm positive attitude to our situation. Firstly booking pig In for his 4 week rehab we were literally amazed by the results he no longer recacted to other dogs but was so much calmer and happier!
After seeing such a transformation in the little one I was quick to ask see if the team would be able to get our family back together so training commenced with peanut and cookie. After the 4 week residential training as we expected the same came of the parents, so much more relaxed and a pleasure to live with and in a matter of months we will be all back together once they have all got ally Michael whom spent a lot of time with our little ones which I can imagine at times drove you up the wall I can't thank you enough!!!
Anyone that is in need of a dog trainer I can't recommend platinum k9 enough, thank you again.

Embrace - The documentary that will create global change
A feature length documentary that will unite women across the globe to love their bodies!
8,909 backers pledged AU$ 331,046 to help bring this project to life.
Project We Love Adelaide, AU Documentary
AU$ 331,046
pledged of AU$ 200,000 goal
The original budget of $200,000 was the bare minimum that it was going to cost for us to make this documentary.
Every single dollar that comes in from this point will increase the value and the quality of this film and help us tell our story with more clarity. With the extra funding: I will travel around the world to interview inspirational female leaders, including the dynamic Jade Beall, author of 'A Beautiful Body Project and Alice Bracegirdle the powerhouse behind Bellyfit International.
I have a long list of women I am bursting to interview, there is so much 'fabulousness' out there I can't wait to uncover and share! EMBRACE is a global movement so it is very important to tell the story from a global perspective.
We have secured enough funds to head to Canada and The U.S, budget permitting, our next stop is Germany and The U.K
These extra scenes will add great depth and perspective to the documentary - EVERY DOLLAR WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Ashton Kutcher has...Rosie O'Donnell has...Zooey Deschanel has...Amanda de Cadenet has...even Ricki Lake has!
Yep, they have all embraced...will you too?
My name is Taryn Brumfitt! 12 months ago I posted my non traditional "before and after" photo and the world's media stood up and took notice. People everywhere were astonished – how could a woman possibly love her body 'after'?
Many applauded me for my bravery in posting the 'after' shot however, many berated me for promoting obesity. There were others who labelled me a bad role model for my children.
It got me thinking...the world has been brainwashed!
Women and girls are constantly held back and lead to believe they're not as good as they should be. Why? Because every day we feel we're being judged on our appearance and how far away it is from an unachievable ideal.
Lose weight, reduce wrinkles, fight cellulite; we're constantly told to fight a battle to be someone other than who we are.
Excessive photoshopping, the sexualisation of women in the media and advertising campaigns that prey on women's insecurities – it's no wonder there is a culture of body loathing and body shaming of epidemic proportions going on in the world.
So I decided I wanted to do something about it. I created The Body Image Movement and started spreading my message "LOVE YOUR BODY". I soon got frustrated - 140 characters on Twitter, 4 minute TV interviews and 800 word blogs weren't enough. I needed a louder voice and a bigger platform! Whilst searching for the best way to get my message out to the world the idea of creating a documentary was born.
You'll never guess what happened next! A film maker walked into my life and we had one thing in common, we both wanted to create a documentary!
So here I am, putting everything on the line, all roads have led here, my intentions are nothing but authentic and nothing has felt so right! EMBRACE will change the lives of women by allowing them to accept themselves as they are.
Can I do this? You betcha! I'm ready for the ride; I just need your help with the bus fare.
So, please make a contribution, whether it is large or small it doesn't matter, what matters is that you have played YOUR role in creating global change. Let's do this together!
p.s Don't forget to let us know when you have contributed by sharing the hashtag #ihaveembraced on social media.
A funny, touching, heart wrenching, inspirational and life changing full length documentary film that will include:
My story – how I went from a body hater to a body lover. I will share my journey from being devastated by my ugliness while sobbing on the bathroom floor to proudly posing nude for the whole world to see.
The documentary will explore why body loathing has become a global epidemic and what we can do to create a brighter future for women everywhere. From the sexualisation of women in the media and how marketers use every unethical trick in the book to target women's insecurities to the hypocrisy of social media; no stone will be left unturned.
Other stars of the documentary will be inspiring women who have overcome hardship and adversity to live a joyous existence despite substantial changes to their bodies. Rita's story and stories like hers – how we can feel soft and luscious too!
EMBRACE will also feature The Sydney Skinny – The World's largest nude ocean swim which is dedicated to helping people to "drown" their body image issues by getting them to reconnect with their sense of adventure.
And… If we reach our stretch target of $300K:
I will travel around the world to interview inspirational female leaders, including the dynamic Jade Beall, author of 'A Beautiful Body Project', Alice Bracegirdle the powerhouse behind Bellyfit International and PhD sisters Lexi and Lindsay Kite from Beauty Redefined. I have a long list of women I am bursting to interview, there is so much 'fabulousness' out there I can't wait to uncover and share!
These scenes would be a great and worthy addition to the documentary; but we need to exceed our magic $300,000 target before they're a definite.
If you fund the project pre-production will commence in July 2014 and film through until early 2015, post production will be completed by July 2015. Come July 2015, this film will be ready to present to the world!
Support our Kickstarter Campaign!
Tell us and the world that you have contributed to the documentary by using the hashtag #ihaveembraced. Once you have made your contribution please take a photo of yourself with the hashtag #ihaveembraced and use social media to spread the message.

Taryn Brumfitt is the Founder of Body Image Movement, a movement which teaches women the value and power of loving their body from the inside out. Her mission is to harness and facilitate positive body image activism by leading a global movement that creates a shift in the way women think about themselves and their bodies.
Taryn is a mother of 3 children - Oliver, Cruz and Mikaela, she is a professional photographer, writer and speaker, she lives in Adelaide, Australia, with her husband Mathew and their schnauzer Ammo.
Hugh Fenton is the owner and director of Enlightening Films, a company who's passionate vision is to move ideas and stories through film giving emotional, mental and physical fulfillment.
Hugh studied a Diploma of Screen and Media at the International Film School Sydney before making an acclaimed documentary film in East Timor called "The Hospital of Hope," which raised $40000 for a Timorese girl to have an urgent heart operation. This film is currently being used by an Australian charity called "Bairo Pite Hospital" to fundraise. Hugh's ambition over his decade long journey as a film maker has been to make feature documentary films which make a difference to everyday people. To learn more about Hugh Fenton visit his website at www.enlighteningfilms.com.au
Kickstarter is a funding platform dedicated to making creative projects possible with direct support. When you back our project, you're saying that you want this documentary to be made. We have chosen Kickstarter because it is designed to make a pledge as convenient as possible.
Here's how it works: We set a funding goal. Our supporters make pledges. If we reach our goal, your pledge will be processed by Kickstarter, and we can start filming. If we don't reach our goal, our supporters will not be charged for their pledge. It's all or nothing. For example our target is $200,000, if we reach $180,000 we get nothing. We must reach the $200k target to make this documentary dream a reality. So whether your contribution is small or big, it doesn't matter, just play your part in making the world a better place.
The Body Image Movement is a crusade based on redefining and rewriting beauty ideals by harnessing and facilitating positive body image activism.
The Body Image Movement:
Teaches women the value and power of loving their body from the inside out
Supports health at every size
Values real beauty from the inside out to recognise the qualities you can't see; humility, kindness, humour, respect and generosity
Advocates natural ageing and saying no cosmetic surgery, yet doesn't discriminate against anybody
Is inclusive not exclusive; while its primarily focused on women it also recognises the body image challenges faced by young men
My body has been ripped, slow, fast, with child, hated, treasured and punished. The day I learned to unconditionally love my body was the day I became unstoppable.
"Thanks to the Body Image Movement I put on a pair of bathers, first time in years and went swimming with my daughter for the first time. She is 4 and a half and she was so excited because I had never done that with her before."

All the women who bravely shared their personal stories with us.
Martine Stockwell for going above and beyond.
Mum and Dad for being so supportive, caring and always being there for me.
Mathew Brumfitt for the endless hours of advice and riding this wave with me.
Oliver, Cruz and Mikaela Brumfitt for inspiring me to create change and for giving me more than I'll ever need.
The biggest challenge is distribution – "Embrace" does not have a distributor attached yet. Film maker - Hugh Fenton and I are truly doing this all ourselves. We are confident that we will inspire interest in the right people to partner with us. If for any reason we are forced to go this alone, then that's exactly what we will do. In terms of partnering with a distributor, there will be no compromise of our integrity or values, we will choose to only work with "good" people with the right intentions, the right focus and as much positive energy as we do!
If you fund the project, we intend to start pre-production right away, shooting from July until early 2015, completing all the post production by July 2015. We don't want to rush making this documentary and we want to be able to allow ourselves time to travel and share stories from inspiring people from all over the world.
To ensure the best of service and timely delivery of your rewards (like t-shirts and posters) we will be using a professional fulfillment company. We want to keep focused on making an awesome documentary and intend on leaving the experts to do what they do!
Please note we anticipate the rewards will be fulfilled by the end of November 2014- we would rather under promise and over deliver with our delivery expectations. (excluding those rewards that are only available once the film has been made)

West Brom are set to launch an ambitious move for the signing of Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Grzegorz Krychowiak before the 11pm deadline on Thursday.
The Poland international is also rumoured to be attracting interest from Premier League rivals Leicester and the two midlands clubs are set to battle it out for the defensive midfielder.
In an unexpected move, the Telegraph have reported that the deal is only set to be a season-long loan deal, as time is running out to secure Krychowiak's services permanently. He moved to Paris last summer with former manager Unai Emery after an impressive spell at Sevilla.
However, the 27-year-old has struggled to justify his £28m price and was told he is free to leave the Parc des Princes after only making 11 appearances for PSG last term.
The two clubs are said to be in advanced talks, and Krychowiak could be set to fly into England if talks continue to run smoothly, as Baggies boss Tony Pulis continues to look to improve his midfield options after the departure of Darren Fletcher to Stoke.
The Foxes have also been linked with the midfielder, following reports that Danny Drinkwater is set to swap the King Power stadium for Stamford Bridge. Talks between Leicester and Chelsea have stalled following Drinkwater's injury and the Blues not meeting the asking price.
Krychowiak is now set to move to the Hawthorns in what would be a superb signing for Pulis' side following a strong start of the season. Should the deal be completed it would be the Baggies sixth summer signing after a busy last two weeks.

Jason thought his inheritance was going to be the gift of money and lots of it. Was he ever in for a big surprise. Based on the best-selling book "The Ultimate Gift" by Jim Stovall, the story sends trust fund baby Jason Stevens on an improbable journey of discovery, having to answer the ultimate question: "What is the relationship between wealth and happiness?" Jason had a very simple relationship with his impossibly wealthy Grandfather, Howard "Red" Stevens. He hated him. No heart-to-heart talks, no warm fuzzies, just cold hard cash.
So of course he figured that when Red died, the whole "reading of the will" thing would be another simple cash transaction, that his Grandfather's money would allow him to continue living in the lifestyle to which he had become accustomed. But what Red left him was anything but simple. Red instead devised a plan for Jason to experience a crash course on life. Twelve tasks, which Red calls "gifts," each challenging Jason in an improbable way, the accumulation of which would change him forever.
via The Ultimate Gift Experience | MOVIE | DVD | BOOK.
This is a brilliant movie which shows the value of hard work the importance of family and the things that really matter in life. The transformation of the main character Jason Stevens was performed really well. The actress that plays Emily Rose is great too. This is highly recommended for teens and up.


This judge is very impressed with himself. I however, was far from impressed. He did not read the pleadings, nor understand the case. He prepared a script that he clearly does not evade from, despite compelling arguments during the hearing. I watched him do this to several attorneys, not just myself. I would avoid him like the plague, especially if you are counsel for the Plaintiff against a public agency or large corporation.
All EGO, no substance. Neither side is happy to be assigned to this constipated self-aggrandized man.
Educated but spends much time giving his courtroom a history lesson.
Horrid bully who has no place on the bench in this Republic.

"He beat be at the Doc Buchanan Tournament and then he beat me again (Friday)," Tate said. "But by now, I knew what he was going to do. He countered a lot of my moves yesterday, so today I didn't give him anything to counter."
And at the end of the second period, he got all the points he needed.
"I just kept working," Tate said. "And once I got the reversal I drove through as hard as I could, and he went with me."
As a freshman, Tate missed a state medal by one match -- a one-point loss. Not this time.
"I wrestled as hard as I could," Tate said. "I'm pretty happy with how I did."
So was his coach, Brian Stevens.
"We've got so many young guys here this year," Stevens said. "Getting a medal, that was huge. And 125s is such a tough weight class."
TURLOCK'S GARCIA TAKES FOURTH -- Turlock sophomore Fabian Garcia placed fourth at 119 pounds, his second state medal after taking seventh last year. But Garcia said he could have gone even higher.
After trailing 10-2 in the third period of his semifinal against Esteban Cabanas of Canyon Springs, Garcia came roaring back to send the match into overtime before losing on a takedown in the extra period. He regrouped with a 10-1 win over San Jacinto's Chad Thornock, then was caught and pinned by Hogan's Terry Allen in the third-place match. Garcia beat Allen for the Sac-Joaquin Section championship last week.
"Once I lost in the semis, I knew I had to win the next one," Garcia said. "My goal coming in was to place in the top four and I had to win the next one."
He was still hoping to beat Allen, which would have given him a better placement than current assistant coach Lewis Gonzalez got when he was a sophomore at Turlock several years ago.
"I'm a little disappointed with that loss," Garcia said. "Taking fourth is still pretty good. But I feel I could have done a little better."
Garcia's teammate, Brandon Egleston, placed eighth at 103 pounds. After beating McKinleyville's Ty Stevenson 7-0 in a consolation match to assure a medal, Egleston defaulted down to eighth place.
"Brandon's had a bum knee that has bothered him for much of the season," Turlock coach Mike Contreras said. "It's one of those nagging injuries that became a little worse today."
THREE MEDALISTS FOR CENTRAL CATHOLIC -- A year removed from having three wrestlers in the finals, Central Catholic continued its strong run with three medalists. Senior T.J. Belton took sixth at 152 pounds, junior Matt Galas was seventh in the heavyweight division and sophomore David Ferry was eighth at 125 pounds.
Galas, competing in his first state meet, beat Center's Daniel Gusev 10-8 in overtime for his medal.
"My goal at the beginning of the year was to get that medal here," Galas said. "I saw a lot of guys here that at the beginning of the year they were where I wanted to be at.
"I just kept working hard and I built up to where I am at their level. I feel I had a pretty good tournament. I'm happy."
Belton, however, had a rough second day. After advancing to the semifinals, he was caught in a head-and-arm and thrown to the mat and pinned by Buchanan's Martin Fabbian.
"After that first match, things went downhill from there," Belton said. "No excuses; I did better last year. This year, I feel I underachieved here."
Belton took Calvary Chapel's Tigran Adzhemyan to the wire in their fifth-place match before falling 5-4.
"It wasn't my day," Belton said.
Ferry beat Clovis North's Chris Calcagno 3-2 in their consolation match to make the medal matches. He lost 4-3 to Tate and hurt his knee in their match, defaulting to eighth.

Brazilian contemporary dance company Grupo Corpo returned to Birmingham Hippodrome with a double bill. While the two pieces, Sem Mim and Parabelo, have very different roots there is nevertheless a symmetry between them.
Created by choreographer Rodrigo Pederneiras in 2011, Sem Mim is inspired by a Medieval Galician songbook which celebrated the sea of Vigo – and the people whose lives were touched by its waves.
With a haunting series of songs, the groups of dancers move gently and rhythmically across the floor all in perfect time much like the ebb and flow of the waters. Their rippling bodies echo the ripples of the waves as they pass back and forth in front of us.
There is a peace and regularity to this movement while occasional breakouts of angularity remind us that the sea is never to be underestimated.
Freusa Zechmeister's costumes are an integral part of Sem Mim's bold design. Each person has their own bodysuit decorated with symbols inspired by the Middle Ages. This creates an impression of body tattoos which move as each body moves – creating wave upon wave of undulating artwork.
Parabelo is an altogether more exuberant piece. Also choreographed by Pederneiras, it has become a signature work for Grupo Corpo since its creation nearly 20 years ago.
Inspired by the life and energy of Brazil, Parabelo mixes sinuous duets with lively corps moments where all the dancers are moving separately and yet as one.
By its close, the stage is filled with bright red, orange and yellow costumes and the dancers have gradually turned up the heat so that we see a dash of motion and colour full of the spirit of life.

Articles in English, Scattered Ideas
Can the Humanities Be Saved?
The university's core mission has been corrupted by pedagogical and political orthodoxy. (Janice Fiamengo)
[…] the emphasis on a vacuous therapeutic empowerment of the student body has led to a drastic lowering of expectations in North American post-secondary institutions. Students now read less than ever before for their courses, and professors are under increasing pressure to evaluate students in non-traditional ways (i.e., outside of tests and essays).
[…] The emphasis in hiring decisions on student evaluations of teachers — see, for example, the public website "Rate My Professor," in which students' often crass assessments are posted for all to see ("She's hot!" "His voice puts you to sleep") — makes it increasingly attractive to instructors to earn popularity, or at least to avoid attack, by giving high grades and making their courses fun rather than demanding.
As traditional content is removed from courses, it is often replaced by non-academic material, specifically a devotion to "social justice" that masquerades as critical analysis despite the fact that the impartial weighing of evidence so necessary to such analysis is largely absent from its championing of victims.
[…] Many professors in the Humanities and Social Sciences devote themselves less to teaching their particular disciplines than to decrying the presumed crimes of the United States, sympathizing with Islamic terrorists and other violent dissidents, calling for the overthrow of the capitalist world order, and condoning plans for the destruction of Israel.
[…] the radicalization of the Humanities and the decline of academic standards are closely related, with political commitment often necessitating the abandonment of scholarly integrity. Many teachers of English no longer care much about prosody or literary history or correct grammar because such subjects seem trivial beside the grand social struggles that claim their allegiance. It may well seem more urgent to combat racism than to combat the comma splice, to analyze patriarchal privilege rather than Jane Austen's irony; and when right thinking is more important than rigorous thinking, details can be overlooked in the cause of student enlightenment. Combine this with an administrative emphasis on filling seats and a state commitment to student access, and one has the perfect academic storm, one that sweeps away scholastics and whirls in crude social engineering.
That many of my colleagues seemed sincere in their commitment to history's underdogs cannot excuse the damage caused by their policies and by their skewed teaching practices — for their ideological convictions were often imported into the classroom, where a balanced overview of course material was sacrificed to the politics of "race, class, and gender." Students learn quickly enough in such courses that success requires them to adopt approved positions: to be skeptical of Western nations' claims to equality and justice, to understand their country's history as a record of oppression, and to look with ready admiration at non-Western cultures, which they are taught to see as superior. Young white men learn early on that history's villains are usually white men. Lesbian identities, Aboriginal culture, and Sharia law are protected from critical appraisal by charges of homophobia, genocidal racism, or cultural imperialism. Instructors often choose the texts on their syllabus not to represent the traditional scholarly consensus on the important and best literature of the period but rather to represent a range of victim groups presented in noble conflict with the forces of social prejudice. Literature is taught not because it is valuable in itself but because it teaches students to denounce inequality and to empathize with victims, and to feel appropriately empowered in grievance or guilty by association.
Indeed, some students become so immersed in Leftist ideology — a kind of secret society whose code language they have learned in fear and trembling and now exercise with pride — that they believe it the only possible view of the world and have never seriously considered alternatives except as the deplorable prejudices of the hateful unwashed. Their conviction of rightness has revealed itself in a multitude of anti-intellectual and repressive behavior on university campuses across the country.
Can the Humanities Be Saved? by Janice Fiamengo, PJ Media, 22 April 2012.
Janice Fiamengo is a professor of English at the University of Ottawa, and author of The Woman's Page: Journalism and Rhetoric in Early Canada (2008).

Two weeks on the trot now a column from me which is on time we must be getting back to normality. There is lots to talk about this week with the fallout from Uprising which proved to be such a good event on so many levels like I knew it would be. We have more rumblings from the X-Wrestling camp to talk about in depth. On top of this we have all the usual news as well as all the info on the latest TV dealings with British Wrestling.
It is with FWA "British Uprising 2" I shall start as last weekend it blew the roof off of the York Hall in Bethnal Green. Now Uprising 2 had big shoes to fill after last years awesome show which many fans said dawned the new era for the FWA. Even before they got down to the wrestling the event had a touch of class as the video package which was played featured last years defining moment at Uprising which was Jody Fleisch's balcony dive and that section was greeted with a standing evasion.
Then they got down to business and there were some cracking matches with the US stars being used well to put over the UK stars. On top of the announced US stars Mikey Whiplash made a surprise return to partner Ulf Herman in his match against the Family. The aftermath of the Family match has changed that whole complexion of the feud as Alex Shane came back to turn on his long time partner in crime Ulf Herman. Before this went down Paul Travell was set on fire during one crazy match. To read a full account see: FWA British Uprising 2 Review
Other big news coming out of the event is that the most hated man in FWA Hade Vanson now holds the All-England championship. In an ongoing feud which has had everyone questioning what was happening he managed to get into the arena and due to the no show of Zebra Kid managed to get a shot against Flash Barker. Doug Williams also managed to retain the FWA title beating James Tighe 2 falls to 1.
It has been another crazy week for X-Wrestling as they seem to be throwing their cheque book around with no abandon as more and more US stars are named for the show. This week Gangrel, Luna, Z Barr, Nick Benz and Shark Boy have been added to the line up which already includes Road Warrior Animal, Ted DiBiase, Big Vito, Reckless Youth and Lollipop. I would hate to know what the budget is for this show is especially if more names get announced which I wouldn't be surprised if they were.
No more UK names have been announced for the show as far as I am aware and we are still yet to have a concrete date, time and venue for the show so there is guaranteed to be more news and work to be done at X-Wrestling. This is the most ambitious wrestling show since the ill fated Wrestlexpress lets just hope things work out better for X-Wrestling. On a sad note though one of their US signings Road Warrior Hawk real name Michael Hegstrand passed away in his sleep last weekend. Our thoughts here at Wrestling 101 go out to his friends and family.
The new branch of NWA:UK Hammerlock got some brilliant TV exposure in Ireland last week on Network 2 show 'Sattitude.' The show featured a match between 'The Inve$tment' Ross Browne and Beautiful Benny B which is an ongoing feud in the promotion. I have heard the ratings for their segment of the show very good so who knows what could happen in the future. I would just like to say a big well done for this new promotion.
Due to unfortunate circumstances WAW have had to make a change to the big tag title match at October Outrage V this Saturday in Norwich. Flash barker is not able to compete due to severely injuring his knee at Uprising whilst his tag partner for the night Doug Williams is unable to compete due to the change of dates. The Pitbulls will still be made to defend their titles but against Paul Tyrell and Ashe.
In a surprise turn that not many people knew about US Indy star Chris Hero worked a few shows for Brian Dixon (AllStar Promotions) during the week which was a big added bonus to all that got to see him as he was unadvertised. Chris though has had to cut his tour short so Dixon has brought in Robbie Brookside to replace him. It was a rather short but sweet tour for Hero and I hope he is back in the UK soon.
Keeping on the theme this week of TV appearances EPW showed their continuing growth with a spot on BBC East Midlands today. The footage the BBC used was from the show last weekend at the Waltheof Leisure Center in Sheffield. It aired on the 22/10 and featured Jimmy J.King, Marc Mignot and Flawless Carter Jay. Well done guys keep up the hard work.
To add to all of this Dropkixx training school appeared on a documentary this week called "Lock up your sons" which was documenting the backyard wrestling scene in Britain. Dropkixx featured heavily in the last segment where they tied their best to teach the backyarders how to wrestle properly and try and get them away from the backyard scene so they can perform professionally in a safe way and a safe environment.
To finish off the column this week we have even more TV news which is an exclusive thanks to my good friend Baxter Burridge. Baxter along with Doug Williams, Hade Vanson and Leeroy Kincaid recently featured in an episode of "Britain's hardest" for Sky TV. I know how it went but I won't spoil it for you all but instead I shall endeavor to see when this episode will be screened and let you all know.

Jimmy Barnes Starts The Shutdown and Announces Live Radio Broadcast as Single Goes Back To #1
October 1, 2019 • No Comments •News
After three sold out NZ shows, Jimmy Barnes brings his massive Shutting Down Your Town tour back to Australia this week for shows at WIN Entertainment Centre in Wollongong (Thursday, 3 October) and Sydney's Hordern Pavilion (Saturday, 5 October) with special guests JET. Jimmy will then blaze through arenas in Melbourne, Adelaide and Newcastle, plus outdoor gigs in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Coffs Harbour, Tullamore and Perth. (full date info below)
In other Jimmy news, Triple M announced today that they will launch "Oztober" – a month in which they profile lots of Australian music – by exclusively airing highlights from the Shutting Down Your Town Sydney show in a special workday broadcast at 1.00pm (local times) on Tuesday, 8 October. An even longer version will be broadcast that night across the 37 Triple M stations nationally.
Appropriately, the song after which the tour is named, Shutting Down Our Town, went back to #1 on the Contemporary Rock Airplay charts this week, nearly 6 months after its release. According to industry bible The Music Network, it's Jimmy's biggest rock airplay track since Lay Down Your Guns in 1990 and his second biggest radio hit ever on their multiformat "Hot 100" (which dates back more than 20 years). The song and its evocative music video helped drive the album from which it's lifted, My Criminal Record, to #1 on the ARIA Charts and neither the single nor the album show any sign of slowing down as the tour rolls around Australasia.
Jimmy's follow up single, I Won't Let You Down, is now also getting played nationally as is the music video which features a cameo appearance from The Living End's Chris Cheney who penned the song.
The success of all this new music caps a stellar run which began with Jimmy's acclaimed memoirs, plus their accompanying tours and film, breaking all sorts of records over the last three years.
"This album and tour mean a lot to me", explains Jimmy. "Writing the books and telling those stories onstage dredged up a lot of difficult stuff which then all got poured into this new music. Seeing such personal music strike a chord like this therefore feels particularly good. At this point in my life I never take it for granted that people are willing to listen to some new songs as well as all the old favourites. That's why we're putting so much into this tour – it's a way of thanking people for still being there after all these years."
My Criminal Record is out now through Bloodlines. Tickets to the Shutting Down Your Town tour are on sale now.
