Mentoring
A mentee can be anyone who might benefit from one-to-one support and advice, whether they have a specific problem to overcome or they’re looking for more general guidance.
We have a diverse range of mentors who are able to provide support and expertise on immigration and asylum issues, mental health, education, employment and counter-radicalisation (particularly with young people vulnerable to extremism), as well as general guidance and friendship.
We accept mentee referrals from local agencies, schools, and any other professionals.
We are currently looking to reestablish our mentoring scheme, so if you are interested in being a mentor or a mentee, contact us by email or phone.
