The Assist Mentoring Project is building a community of women to empower, support and connect with each other. The mentoring aims to develop informal and supportive relationships whereby a more experienced member (the mentor) will help a less experienced member (the mentee) to learn, develop or grow on their aims and goals.
For mentors, you will inspire and empower others by sharing your wisdom, experiences and insights. Whilst learning to refine your coaching and mentoring skills, expand your networks and embrace new perspectives.
For mentees, you will gain insight and advice from mentors and peers, to accelerate your growth, build confidence, extend networks and navigate challenges. The mentoring is your journey and centered around your goals and needs.
Since 2023 we’ve support 23 mentoring partnerships across a wide range of themes and industries from starting businesses and charities, managing operations and business growth, and IT, creative arts, mental health and education.
Our mentoring project runs from September to July, with partnership matching taking place in October, regular virtual and in-person meet ups and a celebration event in July. The frequency and type of mentoring meetings you have will be decided between the mentor and mentee once matched.
