Hey yo,

Sorry it's been a while since I've been blogging about Sed*8. Been pretty busy recruiting for our workshops which has definitely been the most challenging part of this whole project so far.

If you know some young people that would benefit from the opportunity to work in a real live magazine then contact us on info@sed8magazine.com or 07972180431.

Our workshops are kicking off next week with Photography and Journalism starting on the 14th at 6.30pm.
They will run for three hours, weekly until September.

VOLUNTEERS

We have had an overwhelming response from an ad placed on do-it.org (thanks Peter!) for volunteers for Sed*8. Over 40 people have so far asked to get involved. The question is now what to do with them all.

Today will be spent leafing through applications, we'll be organising a volunteers evening on Wednesday the 5th of June to meet everyone and discuss how best to get them involved.
