Mentoring:

We match a trained adult mentor with a child or young person in need of a reliable, positive role model. They meet together for a couple of hours, once a week, and engage in some activity they both enjoy, such as going to the park, playing games, cooking, crafts, fishing and other outdoor activities. The aim of the programme is to broaden the experiences and skills which will assist the child or young person to make better decisions and choices in the future.
