Ask questions of our new Hub volunteers!
Tom @ the BNC
09 March 2020
Welcome back! We hope you all had a fantastic half-term and are looking forward to getting stuck into the BNC once again.
By now you'll be used to seeing Tom, Olivia, and sometimes Tiff responding to your comments on the Hub.
This term, we're going to be joined by some some friendly volunteers from Clifford Chance, a leading law firm where people are using their skills of reasoning, scepticism, open-mindedness and speaking up very often indeed. They are experts at the BNC skills and can't wait to help you improve on yours!
They are really interested in what you have to say on our new Issue on Health Care. They will be doing just the same as we do - asking you questions to help you think deeper and explain yourselves better.
So if you notice a Clifford Chance volunteer has responded to you, do write back!
Their comments will be in a purple box and look like this fictional example:
Our volunteers will also be answering your questions about how they use the BNC skills - reasoning, scepticism, open-mindedness and speaking up - in their jobs.
So just like asking questions of our NHS experts, we also need your questions for our volunteer experts!
You might want to ask about the kinds of things they need the skills for, or which are most important for them, or anything else you want to know.
Add your questions in the comments below!

Hi Tom, I am really excited to see some some volunteers reply to my comments! I hope you had a great half-term (the same with all the other BNC staffs) and I am very interested with this new issue.
Thank you very much, and we're excited about it too!

Hi Tom, I just have a question for you that I can’t find the answer to. If you want to put a video on BNC, how do you do it and do you have to do it at school?
Hi valuable_insect. Yes, it's best to do it at school. I've added the instructions below. Your teacher will be able to help with the login details. If they're unsure, ask them to contact us!
How do I add a video or a sound clip?
1. To add a video or sound clip to your post, you must first upload this to the BNC Vimeo account (for video) or BNC SoundCloud account (for sound).
2. Your teacher has the account details to login. Ask them to help you login and upload!
3. When you upload your video or sound file, make sure you don’t change the privacy settings!
4. Copy the link (URL)
5. Go back to your post and select the box with a red border called 'EMBED MEDIA'
6. Paste the link (URL)
7. Select 'SAVE'
Continue writing the post as normal
Thanks :)
But Tom DO you have to do it in school.
No, you don't.

Will tom Tiffany and Olivia still be doing BNC or will Clifford be taking over with the help of other people?
Thanks for the question. It'll still be us - the volunteers from the company Clifford Chance are here for just this Issue!

Hi BNC crew I want to ask: what is your opinion of the NHS crisis and their loss of money?
13 Mar 2020
Hello, BNC crew I would like to know what your opinion on all of the NHS is and what you think they should do to decrease the loss of money?
15 Mar 2020
What is your favourite thing about the NHS
17 Mar 2020
Hi BNC crew what do YOU think we could do to help the NHS with their technology problems?
19 Mar 2020
Do you think the NHS will survive and take on this virus feared of everyone, and will the NHS get paid to much?
19 Mar 2020
Why did you choose the topic NHS ?
23 Mar 2020
This is something that I have been wondering about for a while now,
It is how many people work in the Burnet news club to read the posts because a few times I have posted something and the less than a minute later it's been approved! It would please me if I knew the answer.
Thank you!
Yours sincerely,
Decisive_spring
We have a small team of people here, decisive_spring, and we have an eye on the Hub several times a day. We're always keen to get your contributions published as soon as we can!
thank you :)

if you write a comment or post, is there any way of deleting it if you post it by accident?
There is not - so the best thing is to be really careful! However, if you write to us straight after and tell us which one it is, we can delete it for you.
25 Mar 2020
ok

I would like to contribute to Burnet News Club in year seven on my existing account. Can you please tell me how to do this?
The best thing to do is to speak to your teacher, fulfilled_starfruit. They will have the best idea of how to help.

Hi I think we should improve the technology because then the NHS will give people there treatment quicker and get a lot of people treated quicker.
