Spread the Word About MCR Pathways and Support Young People in Your Community
MCR Pathways are looking for your help to provide more young people with a volunteer mentor who’s there just for them. Just an hour a week is all it takes to have a lifetime of impact.
With this toolkit, we can spread the word about MCR Pathways on social media and raise awareness of the programme. By connecting more young people with the support they need to thrive, we can make a positive impact in their lives.
We encourage you to share the message in any way you can, using the messages, images and videos we’ve provided. To share a video, click on the video and on the bottom right hand side there is a ‘V’ button. When you click this, you will be taken to the Vimeo website where you will find ‘Share’ and ‘Download’ buttons for you to post the video on your social media accounts.
If you’re in a position where you could host an Information Session at your workplace or community group, we’d also love to hear from you.
Don’t forget to tag us in your social media posts using @MCRPathways so we can share and amplify your support. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of young people.
