Just thought you might like to know that the next ChangeCamp will be on Saturday March 20th, 2010. Put that date in your diary and tell your friends.
I'm hoping that it will be in Gosforth High School once again, I'll let you know as soon as it has been confirmed.
I'm in the process of compiling a list of presentations. If you want to be a presenter drop me a line with your ideas. You don't have to be a professional to present, all you need is something you know about and something you want to…

I've just (I hope) sorted out the gremlins that have stopped the weekly issues of the ChangeCamp Courier newsletters being sent to your inbox.
I think I've got it sussed now, so you should soon start receiving ChangeCamp goodness.

Apart from the obvious, here's another good reason to look forward to a Laughter Workshop
Researchers led by a team from the College of Medicine at the University of California, Irvine, researched how the expectation of a funny event affected a person's stress levels and immune system function.
Several subjects at nearby Loma Linda University were told that they would be viewing a humorous video in three days. A control group was told nothing. In the days before show time, the participants…

Many people want to change. They want the world to change, their friends and families to change, or even to change themselves. We have a thirst to change, to experience something better than we already have. We want to be happy or at least happier.
ChangeCamp is all about change (it's called ChangeCamp for a reason). It's a bazaar of different ways to change yourself and others: EFT, mindfulness, developing confidence, laughter workshops, solution focussed therapy, inner child-work, NLP and man…

I've made a couple of changes on the ChangeCamp website.
The ChangeCamp Courier
If you were used to seeing a rather ordinary looking email from time to time with blog posts then I hope you will enjoy the new email newsletter
The ChangeCamp Courier which is a weekly publication of blog posts and new events. The sign up box is on the left hand side of the website.
Events all the year round
In the past we have used the Events feat…

I'd like to thank Karen, Felicity, Mike, Harry, Lorna, Marian, and others who helped me get things sorted out. Their assis…

There's only one day to go before ChangeCamp. This is just a reminder about the day and some organisational information to help you get the best out of the day. If you've been thinking about attending but are not sure, please come along there are 15 workshops on all sorts of topics from mindfulness, play therapy, NLP, self-image and more, and then there is the Laughter workshop. That's a heck of a lot for less than a round of drinks. Turn up and bring your friends they'll thank you for it.

I understand from a few users of this site that they are receiving unwelcome messages inviting them to various internet scams from other users.
If I receive evidence of a network member spamming other members of this site the spammer will be banned from the network at once
So far this site has remained a spam-free zone, let's keep it that way

I've made a few changes to the interface for the website. In an attempt to simplify the top line. The forum, blogs and chat can now be found under the 'Participate' heading, The 'Information' heading now includes the summary (including the timetable), the ChangeCamp manifesto and some notes.
I'd be interested in hearing any comments.
Does it help?
Does it confuse?
What else would you need to know from the website?

Hi folks,
Just so you know if you write a blog post (and we encourage you to do that) there may be a delay between you pressing the
Publish Post button and the post appearing.
That's because I am moderating the blog posts so we don't get some little oik trying sell us small triangular blue pills or the dubious affection of ladies from the former Soviet Union.
Please be patient I should be able to approve the posts quickly. Then everyone can enjoy the fruits of your labour.
Andy

One of the purposes behind ChangeCamp 2009 apart from having a good time is developing a 'community of practice'.
Ettiene Wenger who coined the term defines it thus:
Communities of practice are formed by people who engage in a process of collective learning in a shared domain of human endeavor: a tribe learning to survive, a band of artists seeking new forms of expression, a group of engineers working on similar problems, a clique of pupils defining their…

Have you ever been to a boring conference?
The kind of event where you sit there as a (very expensive) presenter beats you to death with a PowerPoint presentation that would sedate an ox.
Would you like to go to a day long un-conference where you can choose from a huge range of topics, presented by people who know what they are talking about, meet interesting people - all for less than the cost of a round of drinks?
ChangeCamp 2009 is an alternative to a big, expensive and boring conference.…
