Are you young, have ideas and think you can make a difference? If so we’d love you to get involved in Think Big.

Think Big is a programme designed by O2 and Headstrong to enable young people to do projects in their community that make a difference to young peoples’ mental health.

Other information

Length of project - Level 1 projects can run for up to 3 months. If it’s a large project or you get sidetracked with other aspects of your life don’t worry, let your O2 mentor know and they’ll work with you to decide the best way to move forward. They are there to help you every step of the way.

If you are taking on a bigger Level 2 project you can agree a timeframe with your O2 mentor and they can give you a hand to plan it right.


Training - As part of your training you'll attend a day's training at the O2 offices in Dublin. The day will be great fun and is designed to develop your skills as you get ready for the project. Don't worry about travelling costs as we will cover these.
