Sticks and Stones project are looking for young lesbian, gay and bisexual people (16-25) to take part in a series of short films.
Josh Rafter, the Big Brother star and director of Britain's biggest gay property management agency Outlet is lending his support to "Sticks and Stones", a new project set up by The Rural Media Company. Young gay, lesbian, and bi-sexual people (aged 16-25) are being asked to talk about their own experiences of life in rural areas and get involved in making a series of short films on tackling homophobic bullying.
"I am delighted to be helping the Sticks and Stones project," says Josh. "It was incredible the number of letters I received after Big Brother from young gay people who felt isolated and in a lot of cases bullied and harassed. Many were terrified to openly admit they were gay."
As well as Josh, other high profile gay celebrities will be getting involved over the coming weeks, so if you're up for taking part visit www.insitemag.net/sticks for more info.
Your anonymity is assured if you are not "out".
NOTES: website launches 1st week September / online forum mid-September / first live web chat hour 1st week of October.
