Dear Âsa (and readers),
We cannot force anybody to go to the REY meeting. Our active youth members are
busy at this time or have other reasons that do not allow to participate.
We published the information to young members but without any positive feedback.
End of the month we have a youth meeting where we maybe find somebody who would
like to attend. But this is not very clear at the moment.
I really regret this situation and I have tried to support Mike with some more
contacts.

In Germany we make some cooperation with other organizations for blind and
visually impaired people. So we have meetings, workshops and trips together
because a single organisation is too weak to make it on its own. In my opinion
it is getting more difficult to involve young people in our work.

Unfortunately I do not have any idea how to solve the problem.

CU,
Markus
