My response to comments made by Fr Solma in this article: Having Hartman's title removed has nothing to do with punitive punishment or satisfying my desires. It is about trying to ensure the safety of children and vulnerable adults from believing that Hartman is a man who can be trusted. Should a doctor, teacher, counsellor or lawyer who is found guilty of raping and beating children be permitted to introduce themselves under such respected titles. I think not. I agree with 24/7 supervision but because of past experience, I do not trust the supervisors. They have already proven themselves unreliable. Once again I see no remorse in statement made by Solma in this interview, nor in the decisions made by the church. Mairead Ashcroft 26/7/17

The man who habitually raped me and other children back in the 70's, was released form jail yesterday after only serving a 2 year sentence. He will maintain his full title of Brother Bernard Joseph Hartman and the false trust that this religious title may hold.

Unique Sticks - Over the weekend I had the pleasure of experiencing the organic work of Tony 'Digger' Gilson. Take a look at his short film below and hear about his relationship with nature. Digger sees life erupt out of what others might term "dead wood" or "fire wood", and rescues the creatures who live within, with the help of his skilled hands and imagination.
