Guidance and confidence

Youth Mentoring Programme

An intended structured mentoring route centred on encouragement, confidence-building, practical life skills, safe boundaries and suitable role models.

In development

No routine mentoring intake or referral route is currently open

The framework must be matched with safeguarding, role boundaries, supervision, consent and suitable delivery arrangements before public intake begins.

What a future route may include

Subject to appropriate controls, a future route may include small-group activity, confidence work, goal-setting, study encouragement and practical life-skills development. One-to-one work would require additional safeguards.

Intended outcome

The intended outcome is stronger communication, confidence, decision-making and readiness for future opportunities without promising personal, educational or wellbeing results.

Safeguarding first

Youth activity must stay proportionate, safe and clearly governed. Safeguarding remains central to how mentoring develops.
