Job description

WAY is Swindon's young person-led charity, creating a way for lasting change in our communities.

 

We are passionate about journeying alongside young people who face disadvantage, believing in their potential as they take steps towards a more hopeful future. 

Mentoring begins by taking time to get to know the young person, identifying their strengths and aspirations as well as their needs and the challenges they face. Mentor’s then tailor the support to the young person and, together, they take positive steps towards an identified goal to attain and sustain positive change.

 

Our mentors meet with young people for one hour a week over a period of 12 months, meeting in a space the young person feels comfortable (such as café or park near their home).

 

If you’re able to encourage a young person aged 10-25 for just an hour a week, you also have an opportunity to significantly impact their lives. Just one hour a week can change the direction of a young person’s life. One of our volunteer mentors said:

“I’ve been mentoring for 6 months now, and I’ve really enjoyed the experience. It’s great to see the positive influence it has on the mentee. Even the small changes make a big difference to their lives”. - WAY Mentor
