The Programme
Personal Mentor
Each student has a personal mentor who provides them with support and advice throughout the programme.
Improving Employability Skills
The students receive workshops on key skills such as writing a CV and being able to appropriately answer interview questions.
Social Sport
Each session is supported with social sport, most often football. This aims to improve skills such as teamwork, communication and leadership whilst also allowing them to engage in something they enjoy.
