Hi, I would really love to help out. I'm not really sure how as I'm not particularly creative, I guess if anything comes up that I might be able to help with let me know.Just thought I would put it out there so you know I am interested. sorry its not very helpful as I don't know how I could help.

Hi again Bex (sorry I'm posting in so many threads right now, lol!)
I'd previously mentioned about my fiancé willing to help out - he's an amateur photographer and would love to get involved. What sort of thing were you after?
He's been with me throughout my illnesses and is a massive support to me, and believes in helping reduce stigma after watching me having to go through it.
Let me know if he can help in any way at all!

Hey Kim and Toni,
Had this on my list of things to talk about at the hangout but just completely forgot. Sorry! I would love for you both to donate any skills you (or your partner, Kim) have! I'm not sure exactly what we need right now, but we'll talk about it in the next hangout and work out what we could use certain skills for!
Thanks so much ladies

The only thing I'd be able to contribute is to editing photos... I see someone has already volunteered, but if you need more help, give me a shout

Hey Bex, I am great writer and am brilliant at the communications side of Marketing! Also, if it ever comes to it, I am a talented public speaker so if you need anyone who can speak to crowds, on TV, radio, interview people for market research or just to find out their story I will be happy to help out whatever way I can

Riiiight, finally, here we go, I've got together a list of the things that need doing over the next few weeks:
- Making the website look better! I've got a few more pages that need to go up so we need a nicer design - A Minds Like Ours logo (we're using a borrowed one for now) - A Minds Like Ours YouTube Banner (we've got one from James but it doesn't fit, could someone edit it and make it work please?) - Writing up of some of the new Minds Like Ours pages (support networks, FAQ, mental health statistics/about mental health disorders) - Re-writing some of the pages we have up already, in fact most of them could be re-written and made better, especially when we have a new design - Some technical help with the website, especially the Wordpress side of things which is mucking around
That is all I can think of at the moment, for the website side of things. I've got lots more volunteering positions that I'll put up in another post a little bit later on.
Thanks a lot!

Just thought I'd drop a quick post to let you know that I am about to go into my 3rd year of Web and Multimedia design at University. I'd be happy to help out with any Web Design/Graphics based jobs. I have created sites from scratch in the past for real clients but also have experience with open source web design such as; Wordpress, Drupal and Joomla. Thanks, Stacey .
