Packing

But why “The Pedlar’s Pack”?

The story goes that after a dream, John Chapman, the pedlar, walked to London to seek his fortune
but instead found the treasure in his own back garden.

The Pedlar’s Pack aims to help us to find “the treasure at home”


What’s in The Pedlar's Pack?

The Pack is a depository;
The Pack is a place for reflections;
The Pack is a place to grow;
The Pack is a work in progress.



So – what now?
Now we have to make some boxes and begin! Try the "pages" on the right to explain what we're about.....

Body, Mind and Spirit. - and Community!




Many of the organisations established for young people have recognised the three-fold nature of humanity; Body, Mind and Spirit.  I would like to add a fourth – Community.  I do not want my Pack to contain only self; I want it to be open to the world, to inform, to delight, to caution and even perhaps to inspire. 

It will contain things that I have achieved;

some things that have not gone so well (and there will be space in it for reflection about that),

some things that I intend to do.



And like the pedlar, there will be opportunity for sharing.





So, let the journey begin!
