Our Ambassador Programme

Shine ambassadors are people with lived experience of mental health difficulties, who volunteer and share their stories to help challenge mental health stigma and discrimination. They do this in a number of ways, including:

  • Public speaking
  • Television / radio / print interviews
  • Panel discussions
  • Research
  • Campaign work
  • Content creation
  • Project work
  • Webinars

Ambassadors actively participate in Shine events and play a pivotal role in our Green Ribbon Campaign and Workplace Programme.

In doing so, they show the reality of living with a mental health challenge. Their stories of lived experience of mental illness and recovery resonate strongly and are extremely helpful in encouraging national conversations about mental health.
