Bridges Project - The Listening Peers

A peer led mentoring service for young people aged 13 to 25 who live in East Lothian. Mentors are fully trained to provide relatable support and guidance to other young people who may benefit from this. Mentees can also train to eventually become mentors themselves and peer support group meetings are also part of this project. Both parties are also supported by the coordinator to evaluate the support they receive.

Mentors can also access a variety of training opportunities that are available through Bridges along with regular planning around career development.
