Hi everyone,
If you're reading this and aren't staff then I apologise! Basically, I need everyone who does any kind of volunteering for Minds Like Ours (ambassador, moderator, video editors, tweeters, officers, etc.) to fill in the below form for the website, just like the one I've filled in below. I also need a picture (or will just use your forum one) to go with it. The staff pages are nearly finished and I'd like as many of you on there as possible please. If you don't reply then you shan't be on there!
Name: Rebecca (Bex) Walton
Location: Kent, UK
Position: Director
Contact: Bex@MindsLikeOurs.co.uk
I live with... Agoraphobia, Depression & Anxiety
I cope by... Putting all my time into Minds Like Ours!
My favourite quote is... Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
P.S If you've already filled one of these in then please just redo it. I ended up wiping half my inbox by accident so can only find a few of them.
Thanks
Bex x
