What will you be doing?

The Be Free Campaign is a mental health charity that aims to give people the tools they need to look after their mental health and wellbeing in order to live happier more fulfilling lives. Our ethos stems from our founders’ mission to improve the system around mental health care, break down the stigma that exists which reduces access to support and health services, as well as work with schools, universities and community organisations empowering change and improvement to mental health curriculums. Our team aim to improve people's knowledge of self-help when it comes to dealing with mental health. We all have mental health; it is something that can change and sometimes further support might be needed. The time it takes for people with mental health conditions to get help is far too long. We work on various levels trying to bring solutions to these issues. With our wide clinical base consisting of psychiatrists, psychologists, GPs and mental health nurses. We work to give people the tools to improve their mental health through workshops and ambassador programmes, we don't just go in, deliver a workshop, and then leave. We educate, empower, and propel change where many of the people we work with go onto implement mental health initiatives in their organisations. • To work under the leadership and guidance of the BFC team and to maintain regular communication with them. • To research relevant trust and groups offering grants. • To write bid applications to funders before their deadlines. • Build relationships and communicate with grant making trusts where necessary or helpful. • To keep records of applications submitted and how much donated.
