YWG Weekend Workshop

Fri 22 Jun 2012

The HFA Youth Working Group (YWG) met in Melbourne for a weekend workshop in February 2012. Their job was to contribute ideas on how young people with bleeding disorders can communicate with others and give feedback on what the web site should include and look like.

During the weekend the young people brainstormed what should be covered in the web site and what sections it should include. They created mock-ups of web pages and created artwork for the web site. Zaac and Matt from Twenty4, the design group developing the web site, held a session to refine the group’s ideas for the web site and looked at what young people consider to make a web site attractive.

It wasn’t all hard work though, on the Saturday night we all went to the Abbottsford Convent for a picnic and then to the ‘Shadow Electric’ to watch the movie “The Big Blue” under the stars. The movie was… interesting to say the least…
