Mentors offer on a voluntary basis to give time and support to encourage another, this will typically be when someone is making a change in their lives. There are a range of services that the team can offer from advice and support to signposting to counselling and transport services.
Mentoring is for a fixed period of time and will begin with an initial visit to assess a mentee's needs. This will be done by the team coordinator.

The aim of the Mentorship scheme:

• To mentor someone through a period of change
• Enable self-assessment of needs
• Give advice and support
• Signpost to advocacy/counselling/transport services

Mentors and mentees must be resident in Manchester, must be under 65, and must have a physical disability.
