Happy New Year!

That is our wish in our Webmag Editorial, both for you and for us. The readership is increasing fast; the range of articles is expanding; the number of jobs advertised is going up. For our part, we will be doing our best to offer an even better service in 2002.

This month, there is no theme, but something for everyone :

*an appreciation of the impact of Chris Beedell on residential childcare, one of England's leading figures in this field,

*an interview with Barbara Moore, a residential childcare practitioner who learnt to learn,

*descriptions of two services - an advice line concerning child psychotherapy and an on- line support system to beat bullying,

*a report on Lord Woolf's statement about child abuse convictions,

*a proposal to set up a Residential Child Care Institute for England,

*a stinging criticism of the review system in In Residence,

*the question of whose home is a children's home in the Gus Greene Column,

*questioning the value of holding public inquiries in Terry Hoon's,

*doubts about the Sarah's Law campaign in the International Editorial,

*a paper by Pat Petrie in the Big Debate about social pedagogy and social education,

*a description of CORE, revitalising residential education in the United States,

*something to make you smile - "Things Children Say"

and of course, there are quite a few other items in Cuttings, the new name for Bits and Pieces.

Happy Reading!
