| A youth leader in Aberdeen is currently trying to dream up a clever way to use mobile phone text messaging - to promote campaigning in his youth group. Little does he know that another leader, living in Truro, came up with a brilliant way of doing just that a couple of months ago - and that if only they were in touch, his campaign idea could be up and running by now.
Ever found yourself reinventing the wheel, like the man from Aberdeen? The Ideas bank helps to make that a thing of the past, by providing a space where you can post your brilliant ideas online, where all members of the community can see them. The Ideas bank is where you can find tips, practical advice and creative solutions to familiar problems - and where other site members will point you to websites and organisations concerned with campaigning, ethical and Christian issues. Anyone can post an idea on the site, and it can be about any area of Christian Aid activity: fundraising, worship, education, preaching, how to inspire a grumpy congregation on a wet Sunday morning. Got an idea? Why not post it now? Somebody, somewhere, may find it an absolute Godsend. | ![]() Christian Aid Staff member hands pledges in to local MP |
