Blog: Have your say on Electric picnic, exam results, debs, holiday romances and more!

Article by : SpunOut.ie

It’s the last weeks of summer and we have the perfect distraction to thoughts of back to school, college, work or the end of holidays....

If you’re aged between 16 and 25 then we want to hear (and so do the thousands of people visiting SpunOut.ie!) what YOU have to say. We publish media on a wide range of inspiring, thought-provoking and awareness-raising topics.

If you think that an issue is important and that other young people should hear about it – then we want to hear from you.

We are also currently looking for your media (articles, videos, podcasts, images) on:

  • The recession and its impact on young people
  • True life exam results
  • Electric Picnic
  • Heritage week
  • School uniforms: good or bad idea?
  • Good things about the Irish summer of 2009
  • To go to the debs or not?
  • Debs survival tips
  • Continuing with a holiday romance after the holiday
  • Beating the back to school boredom tips

Submit articles and media here!

We always want to hear from you about:

True life: Share your experiences with other young people. We publish real life stories that help demystify the problems that young people deal with and that encourage young people to think positively and ask for support if and when they need it. Find out more here.

Inspire change: Help others make a difference in the world by creating a film for SpunOut.ie. Maybe you have made a difference in your own life or in your community, and you can tell others how you did it? Perhaps there is an issue, such as education cuts, animal welfare or domestic violence, which you want to highlight and ask others to take action about? Find out more here.

We are most likely to publish contributions that are:

  • From a young person’s point of view.
  • Inspiring, respectful and socially responsible.
  • Well written/ created and well researched.
  • Laugh out loud humour!
  • Giving a voice to groups in society that are not usually heard.
