About mentoring

Sometimes we just need someone who 'has been there and done that' to help set us on the right track...have a conversation that makes us see things in a new light or hear an encouraging voice to give us confidence.

Having a mentor to help you on your way can be life changing opportunity - and is often as equally rewarding for the person mentoring.

If you would like to help a current St Swithun's student or recent leaver, please do get in touch.
