Role Description
Become a volunteer mentor with MCR Pathways. Share one hour a week with a young person at a secondary school local to you. Provide support and encouragement, to help them realise their talents, potential and build their confidence towards a positive post-school destination.
The young people on the mentoring programme are usually in S3 to S6, and are living with a disadvantage which may create a barrier to their education. This could be social work involvement, living with a breavement, dealing with addiction issues at home, or being a young carer. Each young person and situation is unique, and we carefully match mentors to young people based on experiences, interests and personality.
Our mentors are from all walks of life, with a range of life experiences and all ages (over 21). We ask for our volunteers to be a reliable and consistent support to one young person for a minimum of one school year.
Training Provided:
We ask our mentors to attend a 1.5 hour interview, and a separate 3 hour training course (usually online). We PVG check each applicant.
