Job Details

Angelus Foundation is the only UK based charity focusing on raising awareness of new psychoactive substances also known as ‘legal highs’.

Our mission is to help society understand the dangers of legal highs and club drugs to reduce the harm they cause young people and their families.

Through dedicated research, education and advocacy, Angelus strives to highlight these risks and encourage young people to make informed, responsible choices and lead safer lives.

The Angelus Foundation is a charity in search of a communications intern to support us with our awareness campaign on psychoactive substances. This role would be ideal for a candidate who also has an interest in policy, as Angelus has lobbied Parliament on a blanket ban. Our campaign delivers short educational films and training in schools, at universities, and festivals.

Responsibilities:
- Marketing our latest film campaign via social media channels
- Writing website copy, educational materials, and reports
- Campaign at events
- Research
- Capacity building

This post will require your commitment two-days a week; expenses up to £15 per day (including travel) will be repaid.
