Advertise a Vacancy
There are a few options to advertise job vacancies as below.

Custom advert postings will be prefaced by this disclaimer
2. Jobs, Placements and Opportunities notice board

Submit a Post in the BAATN Newsletter
The BAATN newsletter has been running successfully for many years and has been well received by all our members and subscribers as a really useful resource cataloguing events, training, jobs, supervision, and much more related to Black, African, Asian, or Caribbean therapeutic issues and themes.
Interest in BAATN and the work we do is ever-growing, with membership, subscribers and members of the public seeking support. Due to the increase in advert requests, the newsletter will change as follows;
1. The newsletter will continue to be published fortnightly. Each newsletter will include the date of the next one, keeping you well informed.
2. There will be a limit on repeat adverts to twice a month to ensure that everyone has a fair and equal chance to secure advertising space and interest.
3. Section headers will continue to be added to the newsletter, making it clearer for you to scroll through and find what you’re looking for
4. And finally, we have introduced a word limit of 90 words to make it easier to scroll through and more engaging for everyone.
We hope these changes will be welcomed by you all and facilitate an even better production of the eagerly anticipated BAATN newsletter.
Newsletter Submission Guidance
The deadline for submissions is 12 noon on the Thursday before the newsletter date. Late submissions will not be included. Attachment requests are not permitted. Only items that fit the criteria below will be included.
The BAATN email newsletter is for:
