The Guardian Media Group are running a Positive Action Scheme for disabled people who want to work in journalism, and for the Guardian and Observer news papers. The details on the scheme can be found by clicking on the link above. The Guardian say about the scheme however:
"The Guardian believes there should be a better representation of our diverse society in journalism, and each summer offers placements of up to two weeks for students or graduates.
This scheme is for those with disabilities.
Successful applicants will learn about different aspects of the profession, gaining an insight into the workings of a number of sections across the newspaper and website."
Sounds like a great opportunity for budding journos, so please spread the word as the closing date isn't until March 22nd!
