About mentoring

Mentoring with Chance UK

Mentoring a child is one of the most satisfying, fun and rewarding experiences you could ever have.

You would help a child gain a greater sense of belonging at home, at school and with friends. We run mentoring in Hackney, Islington and Lambeth. 

You would meet with a child aged 5-11 for 2-4 hours, once a week for year. We would also ask you to spend time planning mentoring sessions, and attend supervision once a month at Chance UK offices.

You don't need any particular experience to be a mentor - we're looking for people who know how to have fun and are willing to make a difference.

Volunteering with us is also a great route into youth work, teaching and other caring professions.

We particularly welcome applications from men, and if you are from a black or minority ethnic background, as we have many children lacking in positive male role models.

This is life changing stuff. You can be a part of it.
