Our innovative supported volunteering and mentoring programmes are currently delivered in partnership with 3 secondary schools in Edinburgh – Leith Academy, Craigroyston Community High School, and St Thomas of Aquins R.C High School.
The programme supports targeted young people in S2 – S4 by facilitating access to volunteering experiences with a local charity partner. We also engage pupils with empowering and positive mentoring relationships, and tailored 1:1 support provided by our staff team.
We help young people broaden their horizons, build their confidence, enhance their aspirations, gain new skills and experiences, promote a sense of place, belonging and citizenship. Our programmes also support each school with their culture and ethos of volunteering.
