One Million Mentors

About One Million Mentors

We back the talents of young people to improve their career chances, while at the same time strengthening local communities. One Million Mentors [1MM] was founded on the belief that through personal, one-to-one mentoring, more young people can grow the knowledge, networks, skills and confidence they need to succeed.

By giving them access to a trained mentor every young person in the country can have the chance to reach their potential. Together we are meeting the challenge and creating social change, on a national scale.

Some members of our mentee family have described their experiences as follows:

" Andrew’s (my mentor's) guidance with my work experience and job applications was invaluable."

"Having someone you can speak to that understands your journey or the sector you want to work in can be incredibly valuable".

"Having them (my mentor) believe in me when I didn’t necessarily have confidence in myself was exactly what I needed".

"Boris (my mentor) helped me realise that my name doesn’t imply anything and it’s what I do that matters".

And for our mentors, these are some of the quotes:

"They’ve got all the knowledge but they just need a little bit of extra support. It felt amazing when she got the job but it was all down to her".

"I’ve been able to learn about being unbiased, and truly listening".

" I also wanted to help someone who is younger, and develop my own mentoring and leadership skills".
