Junior Yearly Meeting, or JYM, is an annual gathering for young Quakers (anyone between 14 and 18 — you don’t have to be a Member, just be interested and willing to get involved) from all over the island of Ireland. This year’s theme, ‘Quakers: past, present, future’, will be explored through workshops and small-group discussion sessions, with plenty of time left over for games, entertainment and free time to just get to know other young Quakers.
If you haven’t been to JYM before, we’d love you to come along this year. JYM is a wonderfully welcoming event, and year after year people become the best of friends over just a few days. But if you’re at all nervous and would like to ask questions or just talk it through, please contact Siobhan Haire on siobhan.haire@teachfirst.org.uk
If you have been to JYM before, you don’t need us to tell you how much fun it is but please do come back this year and encourage any other young people you know to join us too.
