Volunteer for our Anxiety & Depression Project Group

Hey folks :wave:

We thought we'd let you all know that we're currently recruiting volunteers aged 16-25 to be part of a project group focused on Anxiety & Depression with activities taking place between January and June 2014.

Here's a snippet from the advert over on Do-it:
YouthNet (the charity behind TheSite.org) is creating a new project group inviting 16-25 year-olds to be at the heart of new services around Anxiety & Depression. Project members will participate in a 6 month program of activity from January-June 2014.

This is a virtual opportunity with the option of also attending a face to face workshop in London. Online activities will include test driving a new mental health e-learning course for young people, creation of personal stories for our websites, development of our live chat service and regular project catch-ups via group online chat.

In terms of commitment it works out at around 2 hours per week. Project group members will also receive some careers guidance to help them recognise the skills they've learned throughout the project.

Places are limited but if you'd like to apply you can do so via Do-it. Here's the link: http://www.do-it.org.uk/search/opportunities/2042710

We'll be letting people know by 11th December whether they have been succussful.
