Mentoring : everyone benefits
Mentoring is a service for everyone:
Young people
- Have fun and relax
- Support towards achieving goals
- Access to opportunties, activities and more
Mentors
- Training and work experience
- Supportive management
- The satisfaction of helping others
The Community
- Support to parents and carers
- Recognition of resources that exist in the community, in the form of local people and their experiences
- Strengthening relationships within the community
- Challenge to stereotypical attitudes and prejudices
- Challenge to the widespread view that young people are 'the problem', and the scapegoating which can accompany this.
- A reduction in crime and other anti-social/nuisance behaviour.
- A step towards a safer community and a reduction in the fear of crime
Together we can make it happen!
