All the training sessions run from 10 am until 4 pm and take place at YouthNet's offices:

1st Floor, 50 Featherstone Street, London, EC1Y 8RT

(Exit 5 from Old Street Tube Station)




Interested?


Before you apply please consider the following:

Are you 18-29 years old?


Our recruitment policy is to prioritise volunteers who are 18-29 years old as we looking to involve peer advisors who are close in age to askTheSite's target user group (16-25 year olds). If you are just outside this age group (under 35), we're happy to accept your application although we'll confirm your place only once we know that extra spaces are available.

Are you able to get to YouthNet and attend the training sessions in our London offices (near Old Street tube) on the three Saturdays announced above?

If you are based just outside London, but are happy to travel in, please contact us to find out whether we can cover some or all of your travel expenses. If you are unable to travel to London or cannot make training on Saturdays, it is now possible to follow at least some of  the training programme online. However, this is still in the early stages of development and may not suit your requirements. If you'd like more information about this, please contact us to discuss your situation.
