Mentor Training

Become a Mentor – Make a Lasting Difference!

Are you looking for a meaningful way to give back?  Do you believe in the power of listening, guidance, and positive role models?

At The Island, we match caring adult volunteers with young people across York who would benefit from one-to-one mentoring. Just one hour a week can change a life - including your own.

We’re always looking for compassionate, reliable people to join our team of volunteer mentors. No experience is necessary - just a willingness to listen, support, and show up.  More information about our mentoring programme here.

Our next in-person training days are:

  • 22nd January 2026
  • 5th February 2026

If you would like to take part in any of our training dates, please complete this enrolment form and one of our team will contact you for a no obligation chat.
