We also have programmes for 18-25, that are more flexible, please have a look in the opportunity pack below.

The large choices of programmes and delivery models that we offer means that you have a choice of volunteering locations. You can choose to participate in one of our face to face, hybrid (online and in person) or fully virtual partnerships.

What will you be doing?

You will be supporting the mentees in various things such as their next steps post sixth form, CV building, confidence or career advice
