There is an exciting opportunity for UK school students aged 15-18 to get involved in activism!

Join the Burst the Bubble UK's Ambassador programme.

Burst the Bubble UK (BTB) is a school student led activist organisation, which means all members of the organisation are aged 15-18. We run an ambassador programme for those in this aged group who want to get involved and/or refine their activism on both a local and national level.

The ambassador programme acts as a stepping stone to joining the BTB team and beyond allowing for those involved to campaign on what they care about.

For example, at aged 18, one of our members led a campaign that was featured on BBC Radio 4's Today Programme and was retweeted by the likes of cross party MPs and Stephen Fry.

BTB ambassadors work with the BTB team to help bring about change: as part of a design, editing or campaigns team. The programme is online and entirely free.

Ambassadors go on to create meaningful change.

Webinars and active experience will allow ambassadors to develop skills, such as event planning and public speaking. They will be able to take these skills into further education and the workplace. Former Ambassadors have gone on to a range of further education institutions (including Russell group and Oxbridge universities) in a variety of subjects from medicine to performing arts to history, while some have opted to go into prestigious internships and apprenticeships.

NB to any teachers: If you want to share this opportunity with students at your school, feel free, and message below if you need any more information.

Feel free to share with your children, pupils or any one you think this is relevant too and we are happy to answer any questions you may have Smile
