25 June - 1 July 2012

Simon spent this week enjoying the simple life with the Taize Community in France, a monastic order with a strong devotion to peace and justice through prayer and meditation, along with 2000 17 to 30 year olds from all over the world. Not qualifying as a 17 - 30 year old he went as a helper with 40 local young people and a few teachers. At the start of the week his verdict was 'rehab but with singing', by the end it was a remarkable and unforgettable experience.
