YPAG Volunteers
YPAG are looking for help! Particularly in the NY when we move back to F2F sessions. Every month on a Thursday 430-630 ish we have one or two speakers asking our young people for help and advice…maybe introducing their research subject and asking for YPs perspective, maybe introducing a topic like social prescribing and asking what they know about it already and how we’d get the info out to YP. Really interactive even on zoom sessions and the responses are incredible. YP constantly working on projects, publications, battling NICE guidelines they feel are inappropriately worded etc etc…
So I’ve been on zoom with Neil Davidson and Jo Ball for just over a year now helping in monthly icebreakers and break out rooms and just helping conversation flow really. Asking questions to direct the group without putting words in their mouth. If you think you could help out give me or Neil/Jo a bell.
Few links below - the website and ofc social media.
