Children and young people are facing challenges that didn’t even exist 25 years ago. Be under no illusion: needs are sky high. We need far better understanding of educational needs, sensory processing difficulties and existential anxieties this generation are coping with. And far more resources to support them, in our service, in others and most of all in schools, trying their best in tough circumstances.

We are opening for applications to refer young people in BathNES aged 11-25 (year 7 and above) for volunteer mentoring on Tuesday 16^th May at 10.00am until Tuesday 23^rd May at 12.00pm.

This year we are celebrating 25 years of inspiring young lives and supporting young people. Last week Wera Hobhouse came to visit us at our youth hub, she shared insightful disscussions with Ruth, our CEO and Becki, the Community Manager.

John who has volunteered for Mentoring Plus over the last 10 years has been recognised as 'Volunteer of the Year' at the recent BANES Community Awards.
