About volunteer mentoring

A volunteer mentor isn’t there to fix or solve problems, but to simply show up each week with a smile, to listen, chat, and help their mentee take part in activities that interest them and that they’ll enjoy.

For a young person who may be struggling at home, at school, or in their community, having a kind and caring adult by their side each week can transform their confidence, happiness, and wellbeing. Our volunteers often tell us they gain just as much as they give.

If you're kind, open-minded and available 1-2 hours a week in BaNES, we'd love to hear from you.

Volunteer With Us: New Boys’ Activity Group in Bath

We’ve teamed up with Boys In Mind to launch a brand-new activity group for boys aged 11–14 in Bath, offering a relaxed space to learn skills, have fun and connect.

Jim, our experienced group leader, is ready to get started. But we need 8-10 male volunteers* to help bring this group to life, supporting attendees and encouraging them to get stuck in to activities each week.

We’d love to hear from you if you’re:

  • Keen to help boys connect and build valuable skills
  • A believer in the power of community during formative years
  • Open-minded and up for trying new activities
  • Free on Tuesday evenings, 5:30pm to 7:30pm (term time only)

This is a new group, but we’re not new to this. We’ve years of experience supporting volunteers and running inclusive youth clubs. We’ll train you up and support you every step of the way.

Get in touch with our Head of Practice, Helen Goodchild, to find out more and/or sign up for our volunteer training on Saturdays 3 and 10 October. 

Take a look at our news page to learn more about the group and what's on offer for local boys aged 11-14.
