MEMBER NEWS: Working Rite are looking for Mentors!

We're happy to share the news that our member WorkingRite is looking for mentors!

WorkingRite is an employability charity for young people (16-24) with mentoring at its heart and 'On Your Side' Mentoring is a new development for us.

The aim of the programme is to provide on-going support for our young people as they negotiate their route towards a thriving adulthood, through matching them up with adult mentors.

Become a Volunteer Mentor We are recruiting for volunteers to support our trainees for up to a year after they leave our core work-based programme.

Our young people have worked hard to get to this stage. Could you make a real difference by being there for them and providing ongoing support as they transition from a work placement into employment or further education?

Time Commitment You will be matched with a young person with similar interests and will meet with them for approximately 1 hour every 2 weeks for up to a year.

Your meetings could be face-to-face or online or a combination of both.

What skills or experience do you need? No previous experience of mentoring is needed as full training and ongoing support will be provided.

If you are a good listener and can commit to building a relationship with a young person and acting as a positive, consistent role model we'd love to hear from you.
