| Mentoring and Progress Interviews One to one sessions, talk about life issues and your goals and objectives. 
Barney Taylor is a trained Mentor |
Mentoring is where a mentor spends time with a mentee discussing goals and life issues. It is helps the mentee to think about their own life. The mentor is not there to be judgemental or to tell the mentee what to do. We have a PC-based self assessment tool which anyone can use easily. It produces a star chart of your progress in nine areas of life, and you can repeat it some time later to see your progress.
Progress Interviews are booked in advance and include assessment of needs, information about how we and other agencies can help, and looking at personal aims and progress.

| | Definitions of mentoring. - “A one-to-one, non-judgmental relationship in which an individual voluntarily gives time to support and encourage another. This is typically developed at a time of transition in the mentee's life, and lasts for a significant and sustained period of time." (Active Community Unit, Home Office);
- "support, assistance, advocacy or guidance given by one person to another in order to achieve an objective or several objectives over a period of time" (SOVA);
- "the support of one individual by another within a personal relationship developed through regular contact over a period of time" (Pan London Standard);
- "a process by which an older and more experienced person takes a younger person under his/her wing, freely offering advice, support and encouragement. The older person (the mentor) becomes among other things, a role model who inspires the younger person (the mentee)" (North London College)
- "someone who helps another person on a one to one basis, usually younger, through an important transition" (The DIVERT Trust)
