Early Help Targeted Support (Mentoring Plus)
Mentoring Plus is a local charity which supports young people facing challenges by connecting them with their community through award winning mentoring schemes, youth clubs, projects and inspiring activities programmes.
Mentoring Plus specifically support young people identified as facing more than one risk factor from those detailed below:
• Displaying signs of anti–social behaviour
• Either disengaged, excluded or at risk of exclusion from education
• Or not in employment or training (NEET)
• In or leaving care
• Experiencing significant challenges out of school – including factors such as a lack of role models, family breakdown, bereavement, isolation and historic domestic violence.
This out of school service is offered to young people aged 12-21. We provide an in-school primary mentoring service for which referrals are managed through the Behaviour & Attendance Panel of primary headteachers.
Age: 12 – 21 years (younger children via the Behaviour and Attendance Panel process)
