Project Mission and Aims

The Hull Leaving Care Mentoring Scheme aims to provide young people leaving care between the ages of 16-21 or who have left care, with a trained volunteer mentor who can offer them support, guidance and encouragement.

In particular the project aims to:

Improve the self-esteem of care leavers and their prospects in the future and in particular increase the numbers gaining qualifications and employment.

Reduce the numbers of care leavers who become homeless.

Give a range of support to disadvantaged young people leaving care.

Increase the opportunities available to young people leaving care.
