I am looking for young campaigners aged between 14 -19 to take part in a multi-media project for a terrestrial channel.
The Young Campaigners must be passionate about their subject and be focused on getting their message out to the public and help to change things for the better.
If you know of any such outspoken and determined teenagers please let me know or get them to contact me at caroline.coombs@rawtelevision.co.uk
The campaigns can range from small, localised issues to grand scale world domination..well..within reason of course!

Hi Maureen
You ok?
I wanted to get a campaign up for pirate fishing - see Ending the Squander of Our Seas. You ok with this? Reads well as a strong and purposeful campaign. The actions are subscribe to newsletter and write to supermarkets about shrimps.Can you tell your constituents about Greenvoice as another way of supporting your work? Be good to get as many people on board as we develop our lifestyle section next year.
regards
