The Futures mentoring programme is designed to help students connect with somebody who can relate to them based on experience and career path. The role of a mentor is to support their mentee in their future aspirations and goals, in a safe and friendly space, which allows the mentee to explore their future career, build their knowledge and add to their skill set.

There are lots of benefits to both the mentor and the mentee from participating in this reciprocal learning relationship, from personal growth, self reflection, improved communication skills, the sharing of new perspectives, and broadening horizons.

We believe our alumni network has a wealth of knowledge and support that would benefit our students on this one-to-one level.

Through our supportive programme we will match mentors and mentees based on personal specification, requirements and experience. We will provide training, and guide mentors and mentees through the process and be on hand to answer any questions.

If you think you have the qualities to be a good mentor, including empathy, good listening skills, being encouraging, questioning, providing guidance and constructive feedback with sensitivity to name but a few, then sign up today and start making a difference to a student’s future!
