The GEE Team Leaders can choose their preferred member and then book an available time. Or they can choose a time and accept any mentor who is on offer at that time. 

You will need to provide a brief profile for the GEE Team Leaders.

Ask us to provide a banner for you to use for your profile. You will need to give us a casual photo of you and quote. It will look like this:
