Would you like to volunteer and make a difference to young people's lives? Do you have two hours a week and a smartphone?
We are looking for 'SuperPeers' to join on a short or long term basis to respond to young people on the app.
This opportunity provides an incredible insight into the day-to-day lives and struggles of its users and is great experience if you're looking to go into any clinical psychology routes.
We will be talking through the app, some expectations and a couple of small activities.
Tellmi is an anonymous and moderated peer support app that currently works with over 80,000 young people. It provides a safe place for 11-25 year olds to engage with one another and discuss their issues, whilst boosting self esteem through mutual care. Due to the nature of the app, topics from all aspects of life are present, including sensitive topics such as abuse, self-harm and feelings of hopelessness.
Following this session, if you would still like to join us we will send you a sign up form. After receiving this back, we will send you a small list of activities/reading material to get you ready. Finally, we will ask you to attend a SuperPeer Induction Session which is TBC but will be an afternoon/evening within 2 weeks of this session.
