Games with a Purpose

This new resource will meet the constant need for new games and icebreaker activities for youth groups.

It mixes energising, entertaining games with learning points to create an invaluable resource providing a fun introduction to hundreds of staple topics.

Using topics and themes from discussion starter resources The Ideas Factory and The Think Tank, the collection will give youth leaders inspiration and ideas to help them to include games as a core part of sessions, rather than just an add-on to dissipate energy.

By pairing the discussion starters with these games, youth leaders will have all they need to build a session. There is something to suit every situation - from games needing little or no preparation or equipment, to big, memorable games that will stay with the group for a long time.

Martin Saunders draws on years of experience with young people to offer games and icebreakers that will capture the energy of any youth group.
