Training & Support

Training days to inspire and encourage youth and children’s leaders.

During the academic year 2019/20, South West Youth Ministries are hosting six professional development training days that are open to all. If you are a full time or voluntary youth or children’s worker, these days are designed especially for you; to encourage you in the work that you are doing and to share ideas.

Each Professional Development Day costs £40. Alternatively, you can book all five remaining dates for £170, saving you £30.

Our in-person Professional Development Days will be based at Lee Abbey, situated on the spectacular North Devon coast.

All our Professional Development Days run on the Monday of our Conferences from 10.30 – 5pm. Lunch and refreshments are included, as well as the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
