Hi all,

Couple of things we've been asked to advertise.

OUSU have been contacted by a new charity looking for a volunteer:

SPECIALEFFECT - VOLUNTEERS FOR NEW CHARITY

SpecialEffect - www.specialeffect.org.uk - is an organisation specifically set up to enable young people with disabilities to play computer games and express themselves creatively through music and art

Despite being a new charity we have a very solid foundation, with an excellent group of Trustees and an excellent Patron - Matt Hampson, an ex-England and Leicester Tigers rugby player who broke his neck in training about two years ago. He is now living at home and eager to do what he can to help.

We are looking for a student volunteer to help with admin (who might, over time, become a 'key' volunteer who would co-ordinate help from others) to do the following...

1. Using templates and text provided, help me to put together and send bids for project funding and help respond to any enquiries that follow.

2. Help me to plan the 'official launch' of the charity to be held at Leicester Tigers Rugby Club in January - this will involve liaising with the Tigers and the Press in organising the practicalities of the launch.

There will be other work that following on from the above, including website maintenance, but these are the key areas at the moment.

They could do the work from home as long as they have a phone & internet access.

If you are interested please contact Claire Addison at charities@ousu.org

If you're interested in either of these, please do email the relevant person.

Enjoy the rest of 6th week,

Michael
