Mentoring

Mentors support young people who are 16 to 21 years old, leaving care and need help with the transition to adulthood. This help can include supporting them with college work, going for an interview or just talking about their future.

Who can become a mentor?

If you get on well with young people, remember what it was like to be a teenager and have two or three hours a week to offer you could become a volunteer mentor.

No specific education or qualifications are required as full training is given.

Do you speak a language other than English?

We are also looking for people to mentor our young unaccompanied asylum seekers.

If you speak a language other than English, we would like to hear to hear from you. In particular, we are looking for speakers of:

  • Albanian
  • Serbian
  • Kurdish
  • Chinese
  • Farsi
  • Vietnamese.
