What is No Panic?
No Panic is a charity supporting people who live with panic attacks, phobia's, OCD & other anxiety related disorders.
What is a No Panic Student Ambassador?
- Student Ambassadors will increase awareness of anxiety among students, and direct students who have anxiety to the support No Panic can provide.
Why might a student be interested in becoming a Student Ambassador for No Panic?
- They may be looking for an opportunity to make a positive difference in their spare time by raising awareness of the support available from the charity to students living with anxiety-related disorders. They may have personal experience of an anxiety disorder and be passionate about ensuring others feel empowered and informed enough to seek the support they need. This could be their own experience or exposure to the experiences of a friend or family member.
- They could be drawn to this by the opportunity to gain experience that could be helpful when exploring future employment opportunities (e.g. in the charity sector, in communications)
- They may also welcome the opportunity to make connections and share experiences with other student ambassadors across the UK
What would No Panic expect of their Student Ambassadors?
- You will be publicly named as a Student Ambassador for No Panic, supporting campaign activity in your university.
- You will be expected to distribute the promotional materials provided, as relevant in your university setting.
- You may be asked to share regular updates with our Student Teams Co-ordinator.
What does No Panic provide to Student Ambassadors?
1. Physical and digital promotional materials that can be used to raise awareness of No Panic amongst the student body. To be delivered to their university address.
2. Training providing an introduction to the work of No Panic and use of supplied promotional materials as an ambassador.
3. Access to further volunteering or fundraising opportunities with the charity. E.g. There are also opportunities to contribute articles to the No Panic website, should they have experiences of anxiety they would like to share. They may also wish to seek valuable opportunities to share their experiences more formally with other students e.g. some universities offer opportunities for people to share their lived experience with students on relevant courses. There may also be other volunteering opportunities they’d like to explore in future – from offering to support the charity’s social media communications to being trained to answer calls to the helpline.
