Youth work is central to our mission.  If we listed our projects and ongoing initiatives, it would be out of date before we updated the web.

Victory for Carys at ABAE

Building a Web Page

This page is being created under Marlena's login to see if there are any issues with her administrator's account.   This is unlikely as Marlena is a member of the Administrator Group, and all the rights are vested in the Group.  Therefore, any issues would manfiest themselves for all members of that group. 

 

At the moment there are only Marlena and Geoff in the Administrators' group.  Martin has a limited Administrators role that has slightly less access to the back end

Conditions in the icy north were no match for England's top female boxers, who came from all over the country to Manchester for the finals of the 2011/12 National ABAE Female Championships. The finals included a wealth of talent, from novices with only skills bouts under their belts to seasoned England representatives. Amongst the talented sports women was our very own Cary's Artingstall, a former pupil at the MYAF and a huge success story already.
