The Young Advisors Charity is working with Mediabox nationally to create a team of young champions.  As always, the Young Advisors Charity has negotiated on behalf of the movement for some paid commissions, and we're pleased to announce that we will be looking for 9 Young Advisors nationally to deliver this commission.  Working between 1-2 days a week, this commission represents £5k a year!  So if you're interested in media based projects, helping Mediabox evaluate projects, appraise bids and inform how their work is delivered, then follow this link to apply!

We've been asked by a few teams who just have one or two Young Advisors who need training if we could run a summer school to get them qualified and on the team.  Well, as always, your wish is our command, and we will be hosting a three day residential (7th - 9th August), held in The Mount Batten Centre, Plymouth the South West's premier adventure centre for teams wanting to add to their numbers.  During the residential, we'll also make training available for our existing and experienced Young Advisors, so you can come down as a team, new and old!
