BECOME A MENTOR

Hope After Harm's Young People's Project provides free, confidential mentoring for young people aged 10 to 18 living across Thames Valley, including Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire

Become a Volunteer Mentor with the New Leaf Young People’s Programme

Mentoring is particularly helpful when a young person does not have a positive role model within their family or support network, where they are socially isolated, have low self-esteem and where they struggle to form and maintain healthy relationships.

What skills & experience would I need?

We all use mentoring skills in our everyday relationships, and being able to listen in a non-judgemental fashion is essential
You also need to be encouraging, supportive and positive, and to want to help people who may have significant issues
The process may not always run smoothly, so you need to be determined, reliable and able to work within agreed boundaries
You will need an enhanced DBS check for this role
You will need to commit to meeting weekly with them, be available to them by telephone (mobile phones provided by the project) at hours to be agreed between you and them.
