RTL Internship Programme 2016/2017

Right To Life is launching its internship scheme for 2016/2017. The purpose of this programme is to introduce student right-to-lifers and new graduates to the world of the right-to-life movement and its work in Westminster.

Successful applicants will be able to work in the right-to-life office in central London, on the cutting edge of contemporary pro-life research and campaigning in the UK. They will be introduced to the UK Parliament, and to the creative world behind effective behind-the-scenes right-to-life activism.

We are looking for strongly-motivated individuals who feel they can contribute to the right-to-life cause on beginning-of-life (abortion; embryo-destructive research and practice) or end-of-life (assisted suicide; euthanasia) issues and bioethical controversies. Areas of work can include:

  • Media (e.g. online content, press relations)
  • Research (e.g. academic, statistical, political)
  • Digital (e.g. web design, videography, photography, copy-writing)
  • Project Management (e.g. campaign strategy, event organisation)

Those doing or possessing degrees (or who have experience) that is most relevant to our work will have an advantage, but we will discern the best candidates according to character also.

All RTL interns are given a specific campaign area on which they will work, and are paired with a senior member of staff for mentoring. The time of internships is flexible, though we anticipate high demand in Reading Weeks and between Academic Terms.

If you would like to apply, please e-mail info@righttolife.org.uk a covering letter detailing why you would like to intern at RTL, and attaching a CV. We will respond promptly to all candidates, and those successfully considered will be offered an interview either in Westminster or via Skype.

Good luck!

Dear reader,

MPs will shortly vote on proposed changes to the law, brought forward by Labour MPs Stella Creasy and Diana Johnson, that would introduce the biggest change to our abortion laws since the Abortion Act was introduced in 1967.

These proposed changes to the law would make it more likely that healthy babies are aborted at home for any reason, including sex-selective purposes, up to birth.

Polling undertaken by ComRes, shows that only 1% of women support introducing abortion up to birth and that 91% of women agree that sex-selective abortion should be explicitly banned by the law.

Please click the button below to contact your MP now and ask them to vote no to these extreme changes to our law. It only takes 30 seconds using our easy-to-use tool.
