Do you want to be a mentor for care leavers ?

  • Birmingham Children's Trust work with a company called CGL. They help lots of our young people to find training and employment. They are recruiting mentors and particularly want care experienced young people to support each other.
  • As a Volunteer Peer Mentor, you can encourage and motivate young people to make positive changes and support them to develop skills and appropriate attitudes to education, employment, and training.  We treat everyone as an individual and no two days are the same so being flexible, courteous and being a good listener are key attributes we look for in a volunteer mentor.

  • This is a voluntary role, however you will receive training and a L1 mentoring qualification plus expenses. A lot of the staff at CGL started out as volunteers. It’s a good route into interesting work and really worthwhile because you are helping others.
