Up-coming Events and Projects
Over this last year many of the young people from Tullycarnet, Ballybeen and Short Strand Bytes have been involved with the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme and are in the process of completing their Bronze Award. The Expedition section is the only part that the young people have to do and we are hoping to run this in Spring 2008, were the young people will spend 2 days walking in the hills and 1 night under canvas.
The Bytes Project was previously interviewed by UTV with regards to the Matthew Lyle website set-up by parents David and Helen Lyle to help other people who may be struggling with drug and alcohol addictions.
