The Fifth Column website - owned by CTVC - is uploading one interview a day on the 30th January, the 40th anniversary of Bloody Sunday. 


The Tablet  (27/1/2012) also feature (Dark Shadows of the Past) which includes short extracts from some of the interviews.  And Radio 4's Sunday Programme will feature a package I made on January 29th.

The Boxing Vicar has just been shortlisted for the Jerusalem Awards series category.  Awards ceremony and results in October.  It also won Gold for best religious internet programme at the New York Festival Awards on 25 May 2011.  Thanks to CTVC for helping fund this.

I am launching a campaign to introduce a GCSE in Natural History.  Do you agree this is a good idea?  It seems a good step in re-engaging young people with nature and continuing a long tradition of studying nature in the UK. When I get some endorsements I'll send it to the examining bodies to see if they will consider making natural history an official part of the national curriculum.

Listen to BBC Radio 4 Saving Species - series 2, I am producing 15 of the 30 programmes.

If you are in London on Friday May 13th come to the Columban 25 years celebration working for Justice and peace.
