Youth in Mind

Yorkshire mentoring is working across the Bradford district to support young people who are accessing a project called “Youth in Mind” Young people get access to a mentor who can support them on a one to one basis for up to six months. Mentors are recruited from across the district to support young people 11-18 in age. Mentoring is very rewarding and provides an opportunity for mentors to make a difference for young people’s lives.

Take a look at some of the quotes from young people and their families below

“Yes they have made plans to do things together, she is lovely with him”

feedback from a young person who has recently finished her last mentoring session. “Having a mentor has been helpful because you can do research for me and give advice that isn’t biased or influenced by emotion.”

Feedback from a young person in #Bradford on our Youth in Mind project. He's had a mentor and after his last session, he stated. "(Mentoring) has helped with a lot of things; it's given me the ability to open up to others, helped me to make new friends and given me confidence."
