What

Through informal learning opportunities and a common-sense approach to any problem, entwined with our specialist skills in engagement and a listening ear approach.

Our Progressive Mentors work to encourage respect and improve behaviour from day one, working hard to achieve the targeted outcomes you require, such as.

• Increasing confidence
• Building self-esteem,
• Developing practical and social skills for life.
• Promoting the importance of a secure future in an ever-changing world
• Re-engagement with education, training, or employment!

By challenging certain behaviours, our Mentors tackle the issues that have either held the young person back or knocked them off course.

Our mentors engage with students and introduce them to activities they may not have had access to before or may like to practice further.

By engaging in this way, Mentors can build professional relationships built on respect and trust.

Many of the activities (craft, arts or sports) and skills (social, practical skills) Mentors deliver are designed for the students to replicate away from the session.

To do this, mentors use the EDIP principles—a practical teaching method to teach skills to students.
