+Verb

Enabling young people to take control of the future of the English language, +verb throws down a challenge: make up a new word!

+verb adds a word to our common vocabulary, a word that reflects the distinctiveness of being a young person today. But in our global media age, +verb doesn’t rely on word of mouth to spread the word – it uses the tools of the internet age to get that new word into common usage.

The +verb process can be used in many ways: as a vehicle for young people’s consultation on a wide range of issues; as a tool for developing literacy in the disengaged; as an exciting extended day activity – it’s flexible enough to be applied in a variety of contexts.
