Skylight Schools Resources

Schools Workshops

We are able to offer workshops on foetal development, abortion and Christian Perspectives on Abortion.

These have been well received.

We have made a conscious effort to work alongside other agencies in giving a more balanced view of abortion, unplanned pregnancy, S.T.I's, parenting and sexual health, in order to inform and empower young people to make healthy life choices. This approach has been met with a positive response from teachers, health professionals and other agencies and has been very encouraging for Skylight.

We recognise that a large number of young people across our City and in our churches are still not able to access this workshop, and so we invite you to get involved.

Would your church group or young people benefit from a Skylight presentation?

Whatever aspect of the work of Skylight you are interested in we warmly welcome invitations from churches, house/cell groups and youth groups.
