  • Trip Notes: Lake District Rock and Roll, 3
    Trip notes: Lake District rock and roll, 3 - 5 November 2017 Many thanks for joining us for what I’m sure will be an awesome weekend. While we need to be flexible, the plan is to ride from our accommodation on Saturday – lowish level but awesome riding with some great techie sections. Weather permitting, we’ll use the mini bus to get a day in the mountains on Sunday – maybe Nan Bield, Helvellyn or High Street, or possibly a little lower but equally as exhilarating, above Coniston. We’ll have a full briefing over dinner on Friday evening and probably again on Saturday! Our accommodation We’re staying in Shackleton Lodge on the Brathay Estate, just outside Ambleside – details below. It’s a huge place with a large lounge and plenty of rooms. The beds are mainly bunks in large rooms and we won’t need to have more than 2 to a room. Remember to bring a sleeping bag, pillow and towel. We can get access to the lodge from 5pm on Friday evening and we aim dinner for 8pm on the first night, to give folk time to arrive. We’ll have breakfast together before heading out on Saturday and Sunday and enjoy more of Jo’s wonderful cooking for dinner on Saturday. Lunch arrangements will remain reasonably flexible to fit in with the day’s riding. Getting there: Satnav postcode is LA22 0HP. From the south, exit the M6 at junction 36 and merge onto the A590 (signposted Barrow A590 and Windermere, Kendal A591). Follow the A591 to Ambleside.

  • Title: Reclaiming Youth Work: from Evidence-Based Practice to Practice-Based Evidence
    Title: Reclaiming youth work: From evidence-based practice to practice-based evidence. Name: Fiona Jane Factor This is a digitised version of a dissertation submitted to the University of Bedfordshire. It is available to view only. This item is subject to copyright. Reclaiming youth work: From evidence-based practice to practice-based evidence. Fiona Jane Factor A thesis submitted to the University of Bedfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Professional Doctorate in the Leadership of Children and Young People’s Services. September 2016 Abstract Reclaiming youth work: From evidence- based practice to practice- based evidence An abiding criticism of youth work is the inability of its practitioners either to articulate the theoretical basis of their practice or evidence its practical impact (House of Commons, Services for Young People: Third Report of Session 2010-12). This study explores whether, and to what extent, youth workers can articulate their practice wisdom in a form that can generate a body of ‘practice-based evidence’; sufficiently robust to persuade both those responsible for formulating youth work policy and those commissioning services of its efficacy. It develops a model which aims to assist youth workers in this endeavour, designed to support them in contributing to critical debates about the nature of their practice. This thesis is based upon a case study undertaken with a large voluntary sector youth organisation in the north of England. A number of research methods were used in the study including the design of an Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) funded knowledge exchange event, the administration of questionnaires to student youth workers at the University of Bedfordshire and semi-structured interviews with practitioners.
