depressing backgrounds, are extremely uplifting tales to

Croeso Project - Commission for
Racial Equality
Croeso - an exciting project which involves capturing the
views of people from all over Wales on the many issues
surrounding diversity, equality and racial harmony.
Over three months we travelled the length and breadth of
Wales, filming at the Paul Robeson Exhibition, which was the
focal point for this exciting and positive initiative
launched by the Commission for Racial Equality, as well as
gathering the views from a diverse cross section of the
Welsh population at the Citizen's Forums hosted in 8
different locations throughout the country. Produced fully
bilingually, this was quite a challenge to try and condense
the views of many people from different backgrounds into a
galvanising, constructive voice for racial harmony and
equality. |

Fun Football Resource Pack
Fun Football - done with the FAW Trust through our sister
company, Adastra Education, as part of the ESF Objective 1
funded project "Web based Multimedia" - this is a ground
breaking learning resource for those wanting to run football
courses predominantly at the Key Stage 2 level, but who
don't necessarily want to go down the route of a formal,
Level 1 Coaching Qualification.
This really will bring grass roots football coaching within
the reach of anyone who has a yen to try it out. This
package, which is a mixture of web and CD Rom based learning
materials is yet another critical step forward to making the
FAW Trust's world acclaimed Coach Education programme
accessible to everyone in Wales, and should be available to
the public by the early summer. |

Welsh Womens Aid
This week the Wales Domestic Abuse Helpline is launching
their new website. The Helpline, which is also celebrating
its second birthday, provides a vital service for women,
children and men in Wales who are being abused by someone
close to them. It is essential for those living with abuse
to know that they are not alone and that there is a free and
confidential helpline that can support and inform them about
their options. The new website offers information about the
service and what to expect when you contact, providing
another way of reaching the people who need our service.
The site was designed by Adastra Education based in Cardiff
with financial assistance from the Welsh Assembly Government
and Objective One and consultation support from BT.
