Our Youth mentors are special, they deliver workshops in schools and the community, they engage the hardest to reach young people using their excellent motivational skills. If this sounds like you, and you have experience of this type of work in a paid, voluntary or personal capacity, we are looking for the right people to join our team of Targeted Youth Mentors.
