Hopefully everyone has recovered from what was an outstanding weekend!

The heyNIgh residential, the largest Northern Ireland LGBT youth residential so far, was a complete success! I think I can speak for everyone when I say, the content of the residential, and the craic, was top-notch!

There’s plenty of photos floating about, I’ll get loads more off Liam and the rest, plaster them all over the website, for the minute, feel free to look at my own ones here

Loads of positive feedback all round from all groups, nice to see! Hopefully, with a bit of luck, we’ll secure the funding for another amazing trip next year!

I’d like to thank on behalf of everyone, all the staff of the SHARE centre, they probably never knew what hit them! They put on a great arrangement of activities, and even with the (at times) poor weather, I loved every activity! They even put up with Bronagh correcting their spelling (yeah you remember what I’m talking about Bronagh, I’m surprised that guy didn’t pistol-whip you!).

Thanks also to all the volunteers and youth workers (I include myself, naturally!). Great job everyone, no major incidents hehe.

To sum up, thanks to everyone who joined us in our weekend, hope all the groups and young people (and all the workers too!) had a blast, I did. I await patiently for the next one!

Peace out!

- Matt
