 Hope for the Young are Looking for Refugee and Asylum Seeker Mentors
Established in March 2016, the Mentoring Programme trains volunteer mentors to provide weekly one-to-one support and advice to young refugees and asylum-seekers in line with their goals and aspirations.
Due to the complex social, psychological, and practical challenges many young people face when trying to settle into their new communities, our holistic and youth-focused mentoring approach enables young people to develop the independence skills, support networks, and confidence they need to achieve their full potential. Every mentoring story is unique - pictured above are Abel and Nicole - read more about their mentoring relationship here.
By becoming a mentor with Hope for the Young, you will have the opportunity to transform a young person’s life in your local community. Our mentors work with their mentees each week to improve their English, enrol in education, access local services and activities, make new friends, and build the confidence and independence skills they need to settle into their new communities and reach their true potential.
If you are passionate about supporting young refugees to rebuild their lives in the UK and think you have what it takes to join the dedicated team of mentors at Hope for the Young, they would love to hear from you!
