Support & Training:
· To be a Beyond Bea Student Ambassador, you must have attended a Beyond Bea study day or Zoom training session.

We are seeking one Student Ambassador for each discipline (Midwifery, Children's Nursing, etc) per university. It is expected that Student Ambassadors in different disciplines within the same university will collaborate where possible to achieve the maximum impact. It is hoped that as you approach the end of your degree that you will help to identify a successor and assist with bringing them up to speed to take over from you in the role.
Personal benefits to you:
· Reward scheme for merchandise sales - you will be given your own unique code that you can share with your university and local area contacts (NOT to be shared on social media) that will allow people to receive a discount on their orders from the Beyond Bea shop. For every £100 of merchandise sales received via your code, you will receive a £5 store credit for the Beyond Bea shop for yourself (these will be valid for 12 months, so can be stored up and cashed in together for a higher-value item). For each £500, that credit will be worth £10. So for example, if £500 of merchandise is purchased using your code you will receive £30 of Beyond Bea store credits.
· Priority booking access for study days in your area before the study days are put on general release (this access can be shared with your friends and contacts).
· Opportunity for volunteering experience and greater insight into this aspect of care to improve your portfolio an
