The Key

The Key is a new training resource which has been written and developed by the Youth and Children’s departments from the Diocese of Bath and Wells and the Diocese of Bristol to equip those who work with children and young people.
It is primarily aimed at volunteers in a variety of church settings, however, The Key can also be used as a basic quality assurance tool and team building exercise for existing volunteers or paid workers. Facilitators are encouraged to follow the simple guidelines, however, it is flexible enough to use other resources to enhance the learning experience.
