I'd be happy and honoured to become a forum mentor (forum member leader, as I am a member)
@admaiorasemper
We'd love to have you on board! Please fill out the form to do the forum member leader training and we'll get you sorted! You're already a SHR forum supporter so you don't need to go through the SHR specific training again ❤️
@rebecca947
That would be awesome
I have applied a week ago or so. As for the training, I will PM you
Hey, is it alright if I join the feed team?
@rebecca947 I'd be happy to be a forum mentor :)
@HikaritheFox
Thanks, Fox! We'd love your help! I hope you're filled out the appropriate forms and we shall potentially see you soon!
@rebecca947 I did last night
