Today we are publishing the research report from out 'Taking the Pulse' survey involving over 2000 responses from those involved with ministry amongst children, young people and families.

We announced in July 2024 that CYM were suspending all new recruitment to Higher Education (HE) courses delivered by CYM in partnership with Birmingham Newman University. This blog entry confirms that CYM will not be resuming recruitment to HE programmes and introduces our CYM Futures Project with a focus on research, training and resourcing for ministry with children and young people.

The International Association of Children’s Spirituality held their first in-person event since Covid in mid-July. 

Please note we have suspended all new recruitment to Higher Education courses delivered by CYM, in partnership with Birmingham Newman University, with effect from July 2024.

This only research conference took place on Friday 5th July.

In partnership with the Saint Peter’s Saltley Trust. Click here to find out more.
