The West Berkshire Mentoring Network is actively seeking Volunteer Mentors for the Steps to Work programme. The programme aims to help people who have faced challenges in their lives, such as homelessness, prepare for learning or work. Three hours per week will be required and travel expenses will be paid.
One to one time between a mentor and mentee can:
• Provide structure and support to enable and empower people to make changes in their lives that will help them into learning or work
• Encourage self-belief and self-confidence
• Raise awareness and aspirations linked to new opportunities and choices
• Show by example
• Help people to manage transitions successfully
• Share and teach practical skills
• Offer an adult relationship that is not about care, protection or control
