A 25th Hour Project Action Group will be based in Tyne and Wear. There will also be three other groups around the country and opportunities for members from each group to attend central meetings and training courses.

Out of pocket expenses (such as travel and food) are paid for by prior arrangement.
After you have said you’re interested in doing this, we’ll send an application form. This needs to be returned by the end of July. Then when you’ve done this we will phone you for an informal chat. CRB checks may also need to be done, but we’ll help you with this.
